RE: XIED / Fuel pak
I have talked to Steve Mullen at Nightrider about this and here is my understanding: \\; The IED/XIED alters the air/fuel ratio in closed loop mode (after warm-up, and anytime the motor is both under 4k RPM and under 50% throttle) \\; The FuelPak alters the air/fuel ratio in open loop mode (motor over 4k RPM OR over 50% throttle) So they should not be operating at the same time. \\; I ran both for a little while with no problems.

RE: XIED / Fuel pak
I had the XIEDs on for a while, and was very happy with them, but added the fuelpak when I put on my SE filter. Was great at first, but started acting funny after a while, bogging when leaving a stop, and hesitating after decellerating and getting back on the throttle, \\;upper RPMs seemed really flat. I took off the xieds, and it perked right up.
That's just MY experience, and \\;doesn't mean it wouldn't work for your bike. Lots \\;of people have really good results running both fuelpak and XIEDs together.

Donny,

Have the same set up as you on my Bob. I have the Ness BS instead of the SE a/c, but pretty much the same.
 \\;
I would check your XIED's and make sure they are not pinched or the voltage divider isn't crimped or melted. The nightrider site has an out of circuit test you can do with a simple voltmeter to check the XIED's.
 \\;
Either that, or perhaps your map isn't set properly on the FP. I know that at least one other SB owner had similar probs as you, but recalled setting his Mode 23 to 55 way before installing the XIED's. After setting it back to 16 (the map setting) the bike ran great again.
 \\;
Can't recall ever seeing that the IED's caused what you described, especially after a period of running great. So, did the bike immediately return to running smooth after you removed the XIED's?? Have any other symptoms besides sluggish and hesitations with them installed?
 \\;
Curious...
