Default ? Advice.... please help!


[hr]

I am wanting more of a bark from my exhaust! I am thinking of going with Rush Slip-ons 2" baffles. I am currently running the SE slip-ons on my 2007FXST, with a SE A/C and the HD stage 1 download. Now I know that I could run the Rush with the 2" baffles with out any Fuel mod if I had a standard AC setup. My question is.... Can I run the Rush slip-ons with the 2" baffles with the SE A/C and the HD download and do nothing else? meaning not run a SERT or a PCIII....?

Thanks for all your advice!

The Rush pipes flow more exhaust (less back pressure) so the down load, that your talking about, is made for SE pipes and will leaner then intended. The 02's and Adaptive Fuel Value will help makethe AFR better. The bike should run fine that way but it's not going to be a good as a SERT or PCIII can make it with a good tune.

thanks for you advice guys..... let me make sure I understand you correctly. I should be ok running the Rush 2" baffles without any other fuel mod. Just not as good as I would get from running a tuner?
Just less back pressure right?

If bark is what your looking for, then a 103" set at11.2, with a Bob Wood9B and a D&D Fatcat. Not only will it bark, it'll bite too!!!
