Default Upgrade suggestions?

My 06 super glide is stage 1. V&H shortys, heavy breather, fuel pack and dyno. Runs good but doesn't seem to have the power and speed I'd be satisfied with. Anyone have a similar model with the power punch strong enough to scare your average rider? If so mod suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

The weakest link on your mods are the V&H shorts and the fuel pak. Now matter how much other money you spend on upgrading the motor, those two wil still be the weekest link. What were your numbers when you had the dyno done?

If it was me I would start with a 2-1 pipe and a quality tuner that does more then just add fuel

Hit the nail on the head there but...Even with a Thunderheader and a SERT tuned on a dyno it's still not enough to scare anybody.For that you'll need big bore, cams and head work and the cost of that is enough to scare me.lol

It depends on your definition of average rider wouldn't it?
Yes the fuelpak will not do as much as some of the other tuners.
A good cam, head work, big bore, good tuner and dyno.
Want to stay rather mild but good power, 107 kit with 2 into 1 exhaust and a good tuner with dyno
I would not get to wild since your gonna keep the crank case stock. But you do need to check the run out on the crank before spending any money.
