Questions about New Round Stage 1 AC
I am thinking of installing the new Screamin' Eagle Round Sportster Stage 1 air cleaner. This one:

Some questions:

Some questions:
1. Is anyone running this yet?
2. Can you provide the installation instructions (or a link to them)? You can usually download them after you hit "Purchase Online" but that isn't an option here. (It says contact the dealer for availabiltiy.) I want to see if I should install myself or have the dealer do it. I'm not sure what changes are necessary to switch from the "ham can" to a round AC.
3. I am running SE Street Performance Slip-ons, which I really like. Will this A/C pair well with these pipes?
4. I know I will need a remap. What is the going rate for that at the dealer?
5. I have already seen a performance increase over stock with just the SE SP pipes. Will there be a further noticeable improvement with this AC and remap? I understand that it is likely it will make the engine run cooler?
6. I understand the remap will make the engine run less lean (which is why it runs cooler). How much will this decrease gas mileage?
7. I don't want to run the AC naked and then have to deal with a rain sock or sucking in water, so I don't want to do just a trim ring on top. The only cover for round AC's I see from HD is this plain chrome one they call the "Smooth Air Cleaner Cover".http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US
Are there other choices from HD or elsewhere?
Thanks in advance!

Actually you have this backwards....running lean means running hotter. The EFI sportys run lean from the factory to meet emissions requirements.
