Default SE STAGE III OR? Need advice!

Ok let me explain my situation here I have a 2010 DYNA FXDC and lets just say I am now bored with my TC96 and I want more power. I already have the SE heavy breather, the Power commander and the Thunderheader with a DYNO of 75HP and 91Tq which is ok but I am a Traditional freedom loving red blooded AMERICAN who wants more power just because..... I WANT MORE POWER! I had been looking at the SE stage III and IV because I dont want to void my 2 year warranty if it is installed by a HD Stealer. However I went to a local shop who is very well known for his performance kits and he said he can use my existing heads and cylinders to be ported and bored out and it would not void my warranty. This guy is VERY good at what he does I know this as a fact and his shop is spotless and state of the art. The price is approx. $3500 parts and labor compared to the stealer price of over $4000 parts and labor. I am looking for some opinions here and would like to see what some of you have to say.

THANKS!

p.s.
This kit will put me in the 112hp 122tq area

P.s.s.
Dont bother with a response if your going to say "WHY DO YOU NEED MORE POWER?" Because Thats precisely what an Obama supporter would say and Obama supporters are not welcome here!

I am in a similar situation.

Called the H-D in New Roc, was quoted $4500 for a Stage II not including dyno.

Just spoke to Scott at Hillside Cycle, who quoted me a decent chunk less for a 107" build from him.

I will be going with Hillside Cycle.

My dealer told me it voids the warranty, even if they do it. I sold the 09 I was wanting to big bore, so I just decided to do it to the 04, warranty is gone anyway. The price for the 04, to go to SE stage II was 1800 at my dealer. BTW, I voted for Obama, I'll still post here, like it or not.

Ok I shall rephrase! If you are a supporter of Obama then please do not post here! But I am suprised about NewRoc charging that much for a stage II. They have "great" deals in the winter on big bore kits but Damn!
