Default Mileage for Stage 1 (M8)
All,

How long did you wait to upgrade to Stage 1?
I have 300 miles on my FXBB but waiting to hit 1k mi service before any performance upgrades.

I plan to get V&H, FP3, and a heavy breather.

Straight away. I think I was around the 300 mile mark as well.

800 miles for my Stage 1. Went with Tab Slip Ons with the Zombie baffles, the K&N Ventilator filter for the stock air filter. I used the Power Vision from Fuelmoto with their improved 114 tune. It runs great, the top speed limiter is gone and redline is up over 6k. Up to 1600 miles today.
