Default M8 stage 2- torque cam

Not sure if many of you have seen this so thought I would share. Stock 101/79, after cam install 108/98. Pretty good value for the dollar for $390.

Default Not bad

Not bad results.
I wonder what happens to mpg when you start doing the stages? With my 107 kit I lost quit a bit of mpg. I was thinking of simply leaving the new bike alone, maybe a stage one, if that.

My stage III is down about 8 mpg compared to my '14 HO 103

Looks good.


What all does that $390.00 cover?


Is the rest of the bike stock, ie exhaust system and air cleaner?


Does that cam install include a reflash of the bikes ECU, is that part of the cam package from HD?

I'll check the numbers when I get home tonight, but I can assure you that $390 will not cover a full stage II. I worked a stage 1 (Street Cannon's, SE breather and tuner) in with the purchase of the bike, and then had them do a stage II later. Again, I'll look at the receipt later today and report back.

I have not even heard the bike run since they did the stage II. Took in the beginning of December for the stage II and told them to just keep it for the winter, so don't even know how much of bump to expect. But the numbers from that video are pretty impressive.

very nice. $390 is the cost of the stage II without labor. I'm going through it now. My local dealer quoted me 4 hours for the work. (probably because I am paying to do other stuff..) The video didn't mention anything about the bike having a stage I kit on it, and I didn't see any aftermarket parts installed. no intake, slip-ons, etc. If the stage I gives you about 3-5hp than the Stage II should put you in the 112/101 range. Add performance headers with no cat and you should be able to get a little more. Sounds like a Stage I, followed by a Stage II, and headers is the move.
