Screamin Eagle Heavy Breather Elite- enough flow for 150+ HP?
I just bought a new ST and am planning on netting around 150hp from the motor build I have in the works for this winter. It would be nice to use the air cleaner that came on the bike- does the Heavy Breather Elite that came with it flow significantly enough to not restrict power at that level? Harley's description states "Redesigned to support even more performance with engine builds pushing over 135hp." Whatever that means.

go big or go home..what's another $500..it's the cost of you not second guessing and worrying if you had gone far enough..and you could probably sell your OEM for a couple hundred bucks I suspect

I stand corrected - I wasn't as diligent as I thought in my search yesterday.
