Replace SEST with FP3?
I have a 2014 FLHXS with V & H Dresser Duals, Monster Rounds and high flow air cleaner. The dealer also installed the SEST and dyno-tuned the bike. The bike runs well, has no decel pop and gets good gas mileage, but it is so-so on power and stock tc88s out accelerate me.
I was thinking of getting an FP3. It seems like I could manage my settings better and not need to be paying $$$ to improve my fuel management.
Any input would be appreciated.

Yes, a dyno-tuned 103HO with Stage 1 should do better than that, especially on torque.

As good as the power vision and fp3 are they are not the same as a dyno with a good tuner. Ignition timing optimization is one area that comes to mind.

I wouldn't get hung up on the numbers. There are too many variables unless you are running on the same dyno in the same conditions as what you are comparing to.
