Default High Flow Air filter

My 08 Dyna CVO has the SE high flow air filter on it. Can i just replace it with A SE heavy breather, or do I have to re-tune it? Thanks

In my opinion a high flow filter is a high flow filter. If it's been tuned for one type of high flow filter and you put on another high flow filter you'll be fine.

OP

You'll be fine without a retune

Yeah once you let more air in, it's all the same.

No it isn't

So what the actual flow rate delta between these two in CFM

SE high flow air filter on it. vs. A SE heavy breather


And how much is necessary/ acceptable before a retune is required


seriously
