Whoa big guy, Inever claimed there isn't any hard data, just that I haven't seen any.
O.K., my bad. I didn't take you literally enough. I guess there is nothing more anyone can say here on the forum that can satisfy your requirement of "seen any".

There are numerous dyno runs posted, inclusive of charts. A zillion folks have sung the praises of Stage 1, and God knows you can find someone to talk to at any Harley dealership or indy shop about the wide assortment of parts to get you to Stage 1.

I'm not mad, I'm not trying to pick a fight; why heck, I don't really care. But I am curious about what you do mean when you say "I haven't seen any hard data".

I went with Cobra F2000R. It was very easy to install. Pre set at the factory for low restrictive intake and exhaust. The increase in performance was outstanding. May be a little rich for high altitude but that is an easy adjustment. No need for dyno.

I have a fuelpak and it works great for me. With that said, the only reasons I bought it were cost, ease of install/use, the fact that I was only using V&H pipes, and that I have no desire to ever mod my engine in any way. I wouldn't have messed with anything if it sounded like a Harley off the floor. But, we all know they don't and why. I hated knowing I was sitting on easy horsepower waiting to be unleashed by just letting it breath easier so I added a stage 1 a/c and, initially, V&H slipons and added the fuelpak to manage those. If I ever thought I was going to go bigger with the motor or something like that, I would have gone with a PCIII or SERT but, for my purposes, either one of those was overkill, IMO.

Is the SERT the download that the dealer performs or is it something different? I took mine to the dealer and it took him about 20 minutes to do the download. I am not happy with it. I think it should run a little better. I am thinking about trying something else. I have a 2008 Fat Boy with V&H BigRadius Pipes and a High Flow Air Intake.
