Default Thoughts on perfect storm

I have an 09 se ultra. I currently am stock with the exception of rhinehart slip-ons. With the 110 I am basically happy but I am thinking of putting on the kuryakyn perfect storm set up of air cleaner true dials and tuner.
Has anyone else installed this set up on an CFO bike? Thoughts likes?dislikes?
Thanks for input

I have their mufflers on V&H head pipes, I know most people don't like kurakyn stuff, and either do I, but their mufflers are really well made, sound fantastic, and look great. have had mine for a few years now zero trouble, put a set on a fried of mines bike. He raves about the sound. I personally think that the Kuraykin speed stuff is really well made and although I haven't used it personally, have heard good things about the results. I also think Kurakyn has great customer service and stands behind their stuff better than almost all the other parts suppliers. that said I think you will have a good setup on your bike that will last a long time. I'm not in favor of that tuner, but others seem to like them. I might suggest looking into Rev performance's EMS which is an auto tune devise and works fantastic!! have one on my bike that has really made a difference in the running of it and you can grow into it without havig to change the whole program. I am a mechanic by trade, and this is my professional opinion, and its just that, an opinion. I'm sure you will get a bunch more here!!

first, you have fuel injection, not a carb. secondly its more than just changing pipes to reduce heat, that also comes from changing the air/fuel mixture which is what that box does. there are many kinds of fuel enriching devises, some better than others. to realize the cooling effect , and enhance the performance do a package, whether or not the kurakyn one or somebody elses. search the archives here, lots of post on this subject
