Default Ventilator air cleaner

I'm currently running a slip on on my 17 sgs. Thinking of getting the ventilator air cleaner as I really like the look. Dealer will put a program in for 70 bucks if I purchase the street tuner. I'd rather go with the fp3 but know it will kill the warranty. Are any of you using the above set up and how does it work performance and mileage wise . Would you recommend waiting until the warranty is too and going with the fp3?

For starters how much warranty do you have left. Answers may very depending on if your bike is brand new vs a year old.

If you want to run the Screaming Eagle tuner you can download yourself and save yourself 70 bucks

I have Fuelmoto slip ons (EPA approved) ventilator AC and the SE tuner. Bike runs great, if I wanted to complain and I won't you can hear a slight sucking noise when your blasting through the gears. Not too loud but my mechanical noise sensitive ears hear it. I do like the looks and it doesn't stick out at all. Surdyke HD free shipping and 20% off, I dumped the basic stage 1 tune in myself.

less the $40 for necessary cable..my dealer did the Stage 1 ecm calibration for $50 using their cable..I didn't want to buy it because i knew I wouldn't be using it..ended up having them dyno tune it which was a significant improvement over the ECM S1 recal

You're still at stage 1? I've toyed with the idea of having mine dyno'd but I didn't think it would make much difference on a stage 1

Yup, and it did, like the difference of driving down the field and settling for a field goal vs punching it into the end zone for the win. Sorry, getting excited FB season is about here!!

That's what I did. Then run some autotune sessions. Works well on my stage two torque cam. I just wish I could autotune for more than 30 minutes, but the
street tuner buffer fills up too fast.
