Default new guy with problems

&nbsp\\;I need a little help,I'm using the word little so that I don\\;t sound to dumb. I have a 07 wideglide, I have se-11 slipons, hypercharger airfltr, pc111. the problem that comes up but not every time is that when I start the bike it will pop an fart through the air filter and not start.when Itry to start it again I roll the throttle a little and it starts. but then i get to the first stop sign (1/2 blk) it is idleing high. I have noticed my mpg has droped to about 31 mpg. I am new to the harley world and will apreciate any help good,bad,or ugly!!!&nbsp\\; thanks!
