Stage 2 riders?
RE: Stage 2 riders?
If you do the 95 kit then have the heads done. With ported and polished heads (Branch does really good work) and some decent cams along with a HD Race Tuner and some good pipes you should be able to push 100 hp to rear tire. If you go with the stock Harley kit without doing the heads you will be lucky to get 85 hp.

Either way you are really gonna feel the difference. Passing cars on the interstate is as easy as twisting the throttle without having to downshift. By the time I get around them I am usually pushing 85. On my stock Ultra I had to really give it the throttle and sometimes downshift to get around a car fast.

Wellcome to the Forum,
Terry is right, you're going to notice a performance increase in a big, big way. I went with the Harley stage II kit before delivery. I can't compare the difference from before the upgrade to after, but I sure can feel the horses come alive when you roll on the throttle at highway speeds. I'm very pleased with the kickintheass launch you get. I'll have to try a stock 88B one day to appreciate it fully I'm sure. Getting the heads FLOWED can be risky business if they don't do it correctly, plus there just might be a warranty issue ?

RE: Stage 2 riders?
I have a 2005 Road King. Have done the Stage 1 95 inch upgrade with the Screamin' Eagle intake. At the same time added HDFR heads (machined), quick install push rods, Evo valves with heavy duty springs and high performance clutch spring. Have Vance & Hines Oval slip on mufflers with stock header. Also have installed Power Commander III and had it custom tuned. The Dyno shows 88 hp and 94 fp torque. They tell me when I add the SE cams I can expect about 105 hp.
