I agree on the sticky, the touring page is great to see what mods give what kind of performance, I guess a guy could draw some parallels to dyna mods. Me I'm impressed by the hp and tq gains with the 103+ kits and head work. 100rwhp + 100rwtq would be fun on a dyna.
If you look at Mupuddle's sheet you'll see two separate runs on the dyno. The first run is before his tune which are the red lines, with torque and hp indicated respectively on the graph. You have the RPM indicated on the bottom and hp and torque along the left wich produces the power curve of hp and torque as the bike goes through the rpms.The blue lines is his dyno run after his bike was tuned. You'll notice on with the run with the blue lines that he picked up 10 hp and torque after his tune. Also he has awesome low to mid-range torque, which is where most people want it. He also has gobs of HP on the top end.
By no means am I an expert so others chime in if I'm horribly wrong.
Skyhook,
There seems to be the idea that running the SE257 cams gives you a very "unrideable" bike around town and that you have to really rev it to get rolling.This is not my experience, and was wondering what your thoughts are.

the 257 has a lot of overlap, which part of what gives it poor low speed manners...the 48* intake close doesn't help either...actually I'm considering going to a wood or t-man cam for better low rpm torque
Recently had VH Shortshot Staggered Black, SE Stage 1 AC and SERT installed on my 06 SB. It dynoed out at 72.72 hp and 80.12 foot pounds of torque. You definitely want to hang on when you crack the throttle. Sounds bad too even with the quiet baffles.
