Default Harley Torque cam w/Fuel Moto headpipe Dyno on CVO

New to the forum, thought I would share some numbers and my thoughts on my stage II upgrade on my 2017 Street Glide CVO. Installed Harley torque cam (se8-447), Fuel Moto jackpot headpipe, Rinehart 4" slip ons, AIM variable pressure clutch and dyno tuned by Red Rock Harley in Las Vegas with Power Vision. Max power was 108.18 @ 5.41rpm and max torque was 125.23 @ 3.51 rpm. Nice numbers and curve where I need it.
Very pleased. Runs much cooler, the power is unreal, sounds louder, but not obnoxious. More importantly to me, it now has that Harley cam lope at idle that the m8 was missing. Highly recommend this upgrade.

That Interesting. I thought CVOs were already set up with Stage 2 or 3 plus a cam. Thought that's why they cost so much. Nice # on Dyno.

That is a common misconception. 110 CVO's had the 225 cam.

I have an m8 114 CVO. I just fitted the torque cam se8-447. I already had V&H power duals and 4.5" mufflers and the HB AC. HP went up from 79 to 97, torque went from 111 to 116. Not as dramatic as the OP's bike, but mine is a dealer download tune only for now.

Since you don't have the stock CVO exhaust any longer the calibration for your bike will not produce the smoothest, most responsive, and most power from the engine build.
Sure it will run ok but what's missing is the advantages and benefits of recalibration (tune) for the different airflow due to differently designed exhaust system.
The canned downloads from Harley only work decently when every part on the bike is the same as the parts the calibration was developed for. Canned maps have to assume all production injectors flow the same (they don't), all heads flow the same (they don't), and all exhaust systems will flow the same (they don't).

Yes, I am well aware the canned tune is a compromise, which was made clear in my post.

Went to the dyno 2 weeks ago, but had issues with SE tuner software not reading my tuner. So no tune was performed that day. Have resolved issues (SE tuner software updated) and will reschedule dyno tune soon.

I knew I got ripped lol....they put those stinking 255's in my cvo...What's a common misconception? The cam in a cvo? They're not the same as a stock bike...the rushmores were close to the 255's that came in the cvos
