Keep the stock filter cover,switch up to the Screaming air flter insert.Even lifts the sound with a definite power gain!Even without the Cam.No sense to leave the small internal baffle pipe.For zero cost of removing the mufflers and grinding the baffle loose 2" inside the outlet end.Do one step at a time and see the difference yourself,then throw in the cam for the best value for the money upgrade, with a tangible result!
Leave the Cat,it has twice the capacity of the old Twincam.

I saw that one, but the fitment is throwing me off. looking at the parts and instructions sheet, I dont see that filter being set up for the original breather hose. I have not seen it up close and in person,but My guess is its not for the stock setup.
Fits '17-later Touring and Trike models "equipped with" Wedge High-Flow Air Cleaner Kit P/N 29400245 or 29400246

I only looked at fitment, you're right looks like you would need the high flow backing plate to use that one. Will this one work?

Did the Stage II torque cam upgrade lower your mpg? If so, how much?

I went to 3 different HD dealers.....and guess what ?????? I got 3 different quotes/prices. I asked for the same thing at all three....$985 ... $1450 ..... $1850 ...... i am amazed that if someone isn't informed what a racket...
Now the differences:
$985 i was not asked nor did I ask if the same rods were going to be used,but so what!! if they re-use the same ones.....tunes ( i am assuming a download)
$1450 they would use the adjustable puch rods, but then i question this, if the adjustable push rods are used shouldn't the labor be reduced as it's making the instal alot faster. (I am going to assume download )
$1850, was no adjustable push rods, but with a download, but if it wasn't good then a dyno tunes would be done.
Choices choices ....
