Thanks, that’s what I’m looking for. That roll on torque and that nice Harley lope and sound.

This is the cam the bike should have come with, noticeable increase in power, and it really improved the sound of the rineharts. It got more of a throaty growl upon acceleration now and a nice lope at idle. Here are some of my exhaust clips: stock, slip-ons, slip-ons + cam - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL...idpBKWeXqK9XB_
Thanks, watched your clips. Nice sound, just what I’m looking for.

Some decel pop and slight hesitation when taking off...other than that, like everyone else said, pulls hard on up!

It really runs great other than when just taking off...the autotuner will resolve it, if/when they finally release it...

the warranty is big for me. I did the 7 year esp with the SE option so getting all this done within 60 days so it’s all covered. The didn’t say anything to you about warranty and header pipes? I’d love to do headers and get rid of the catalyst but they said that’s a definite no go for the warranty. The Rinehart slipons are a gray area but they’re EPA compliant so they’d have a hard time cancelling the warranty.

Love my TQ cam, it's the best bang for your buck upgrade. I had the DBX 4.5 slipons and it caused a very noticeable hesitation or dip right off the throttle, swapped out for the Torquer 450s and it went away.

Every set of slip on mufflers is EPA compliant, because as you said, the catalytic converters on our bikes are in the headers. As long as you have a set of slip ons installed (aka not running open headpipes), your warranty will be OK as long as you use the HD Screamin Eagle tuner.

I spend a lot of time talking with the HD techs at my dealer before choosing my modifications. Tab slip ons, Arlen Ness intake, and the HD tuner = warranty is still OK. The tuner is what gets flagged when they hook your bike up to their machines, and anything other than HD will automatically put a red mark on your bike's VIN.

Have you tried running any of the smart tune calibration cycles using just the SE street tuner? May help until the wideband O2 sensor autotune module is available for the 2021's
