Default Fuelpak

I bought a used 2008 Rocker C with only 2200 miles on it back in 2009. It has a Screamin Eagle aftermarket A/C on it. Does this mean it had to be dynoed or have some type of fuelpak installed? The reason I'm asking is because I just installed some V&H straight shot slip ons. Any help to thus matter is greatly appreciated.

Maybe maybe not. General consensus seems to be that if you toy with both AF and exhaust, you should do something about the fuel, but if it runs OK for you (not hot, no ping, good throttle response) then its probably OK. But the bike will run a lot better with a tune or add-on module. There are a lot of choices, the name brands work as advertised and the more you spend the more sophisticated the system and the smoother it will run. Look at the TTS tuning kit for the street and around $500. About the best you can do for the street without hiring a pro, but does require some sweat equity and its not for everyone. If you found this forum you are computer literate enough

If you go fuelpak, think about also using an Xied. The Xied will richen up cruise a bit where the fuelpak adds more to WOT.

BTW, do you know if the bike running the OEM stock map, or has another map been downloaded?

No I dont know if it's the OEM mapping or not. How does one know this or find this out? dealer? Oh and thanks a bunch Coldcase for the reply. Your advice makes alot of sense. I think I am going to get a tuner just to make sure the bike is running at its potential!
