First, stop typing like that.

Second, read this regarding breaking the new engine in: http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

Third, it's not really going to feel much faster unless your engine was going bad for a while (I don't know the circumstances of you having a new engine). Engines do lose power over time, but it's not like they deflate to half their previous power. I'd say you may feel a little more pep but that's about it.
