Well, just thinking ahead for winter mods. Ready for some more get-e-up. I've done lots of searching and I've seen lots of talk about what mods are best. I just want to see what actual results have been had. What mods have you made and what was the final outcome (HP and Torque)? Feel free to boast. All i know is the SERT and AC with V& H Big Radius didn't get my '06 anywhere close to where I want it to be!!!!
Well all I did was V&H big shot staggerd's SE air cleaner with K&N filter running the element open (ditched the football) and got 73Hp and 74 Ft Tq. with SERT for fuel management.
Porker Hatchet Exhaust, PCIII, SE A/C: 74 HP/77 TQ (basically the same stuff you've done)
- you may want to look into doing a 95" kit with upgraded cams and some head work. That seems to be the best bang for your buck from reading other threads. You may get higher number out of a 103 kit but per dollar, I read the 95" kit is the best value. I think GMR Performance makes a 98" kit that is supposed to be meanas well.
GMR Power Pack 2 worked out real good for me. However if I was to do it again I would go for the Powerpack 1
It's a little lower compression build good for the 100hp/100Tq range.
06 Scremin Eagle Fat Boy 103, no engine mods! D&D 2 in 1 Header, K&N, S.E.R.T., Trip. Plat. Plugs, Scremin Eagle Plug Wires, had it Dyno-Tuned over year ago at 1000 mile service, I only have 2185 miles on it now and at 1800 miles I changed all fluids to MOBIL ONE for'V' TWINS and put MOBIL ONE TRANNY OIL in 75w 90w, shifts like BUTTER and does not run hot, but I think I'm making more H.P & Toruqe now because I did not have some of the stuff I mentioned on and in bike also I think it still is not broke in, but no engine mods.!! Right at 100H.P & 100Tourqe. I was going to get another DYNO-TUNE at the new STEALER in D.F.W. but wanted $360.00, I said up your nose with a rubber hose!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!! PURPLE HAZE. P.S It was over a 100 degrees and very high humidity on DYNO-TUNE day.
I thought the power produced by the stock 88" was fine until I got a wild hair and bumped mine up to 95".I did a pretty mild build using Screaming Eagle and Harley parts.Now I know that these bikes were made to run with more power.It's much more fun to ride now.Mine makes 90 HP and 102 TQ.If I ever do it again I'll probably go for a little more power,It'd be fun to be in the 100/100 group.
Just did the Kuryakyn Pro-R Hyperchaarger w/K&N filter, PCIII, V&H BSS, and a Woods Bro TW-6 Cam, got dynoed at the beginning of the summer @ 90 HP and 92 ft lbs.
My Fat Classic with Ness Big Sucker A/C, V&H BSS, PCIII, and S&S 510G cams is putting right at 80 hp and lbs of torque on the ground. Can't wait to put a big bore kit in it.
GMR Power Pack 2 worked out real good for me. However if I was to do it again I would go for the Powerpack 1
It's a little lower compression build good for the 100hp/100Tq range.
Do you say you'd rather the lower compression just to avoid pre-mature wear on the engine or have you had any other issues...knocking, etc? When would you consider compression releases...as you can tell Im no wrench! Thanks for the help guys.
