I have a 08 FatBob with a S/E heavy breather and Vance & Hines short turn down exhaust. It came with Harley upgrade to the computer, (stage one, maybe).
I would like to change the cams to the 255's I think, and add a tuner. I would like to get some information on if these cams would be the ones to go with or would others work better? Which tuner would work the best?
I have a 2013 Road Glide Ultra and had Harley do the 255's and a Fat Cat 2 into 1 with a S/E tuner and air cleaner. Dyno tuned. It runs great. Now I need the FatBob to run as good.
Any information please...
Thank you in advance

Welcome to you from Milwaukee, WI. You'll have better luck with your question if you post it in one of the bike forums. Lots of expert advice available there. Good luck - and ride safe!
Well sounds like you're happy with the Ultra so just think of what it is that made you decide on the 255 for that & who set it up? Same applies to the Fatbob so just follow that procedure again if you're happy with how that turned out. There really are too many variables to just suggest a cam right off the bat without knowing anything about you, your riding style and conditions you're most likely to ride in.
I'm really enjoying the SE 204's & running the same engine as your Fatty.
