Default efi map tune??

I have an 2004 road glide 16 k on the speedo. I have a standard air cleaner. Previous owner installed screamin eagle touring pipes and did not remap. Correct spark plugs installed. Spark plug shows white deposits, no blistering on electrodes. Bike gets 46 mpg on the open road and runs great. I am an old Porshce technician and with those vehicles lean conditions sometimes lead to overheating and meltdown. I can have a higher flow air cleaner installed and do a remap for $350. I would prefer to do this only if it is necessary, and like the current mileage. Any feed back from tuners here? Thank you JL

The bike will run fine with no need for any modifications with your present set up, if after time you would like better throttle response and a small but nice gain in HP then you may opt for the bigger air filter and the ecm remap but I would not suggest doing the air cleaner with out the remap, you may be asking for trouble trying that.
