Default re map

I just picked up some Sceaming Eagle slipons to replace my way to choked stock mufflers I was going to try them without a remap until I do a intake up grade, $400 bucks here for a remap so I will be doing alot o learnin over the next while and will be doin my own mapping, but for now I getting mix of opinions.????
This sure takes a lot more than my last ride (39 Knuck) what the hey when you step up almost 70 years in technoledgy I guess there might be a few things to learn.
07 Dyna Superglide
Any ideas

Don't waste your funds on the dealer remap. Get a power commander or other tuner and have it mapped for your setup.

I'm running into the same learning curve.Coming from a shovel to the new bikes is like night and day.Check out TTS master tune or Fuel Moto.Fuel moto is a sponsor to this forum And I have heard very good things about them.I could be wrong but you can run the slip ons without remaping.Changing jets was a lot easier wasn't it?

I wouldn't do anything until you add your breather. Then I would go to FuelMoto and flash a PCV to match your specs. Then when time and money is available, have it dyno'd.

Whta about HD's own Supertuner? The dealership is trying hard to sell me on that one, plus AC and Dyno, of course! Altogether a whopping $1100 FFS! They are trying to tell me that the Power Commanders are prone to failure and will screw up the ECM at the same time. Any truth in this, or what I heard elsewhere that the Thundermax is more robust than the PC3?

I've been running the Dyno-Jet PC3 for two years now, had it dyno'd, no problems at all, works perfect!

$400 for a remap? Should be like $150.

I alraedy had the Stage 1 download, free of charge as the salesman said it was alraedy done. Bike runs a bit better, but still pops a lot on decel. Will adding a hi flow AC make it even leaner, or would it be safe, for now, to go ahead with the Stage 1, Hi- Flow and my Big Radius dauls until I decide on the re-map choice
