Getting it on dyna will get ya an extra 3 or so hp but you no longer have to worry about too lean or rich and overheating has been a problem on the 96 cu. in. when its too lean. That's why the factory now requires dyno on warranty when changing intake, exaust and remapping. Get it done right dude it's worth it I had all kinds of problems with a Dyna-Low-Rider cause it wasn't right.It overheated caused leaks on heads all that good s___.
Only my opinion but I thought it was worth it on my FXSTC and have had no problems.

Sledgemann, are you saying that they dyno-tuned a bike with a fuel pak?
SoftailJim, what modes did they tell you to adjust, and what values did they give you?

I read in American Iron that if you put on screamin eagle slip ons and a stage1 air cleaner the 07 can over come a small change but you have to get a pc111 or a tuner if you change out the full exhaust?????
&nbsp\\;
What do you guys think

96" w/SE air cleaner, V&amp\\;\\\\\\;H Big Radius, &amp\\;\\\\\\; SE-EFI Race Tuner&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Have not looked at tuner specs or settings yet. Max Power+70.51 Max Torque 83.29. Gained 7hp over stock settings on power band top end. Fuel mix around 13.5 around bottom end stock changed to&nbsp\\;12.6 (a little lean). Top end&nbsp\\; 13.5 stock to about 12.2.

I think that you have it backwards. 12.6 and 12.2 are rich not lean. 13.5 is the preferred F/A ratio, Stock is 14.6

sas, i think it air to fuel ratio, so it would 14.7:1 which is 14.7 parts of air to 1 part fuel. if i had a ratio of 12:1 i now have a rich mixture because i have less air.

No kidding. He was saying that 12.6 was (a little lean) and 13.5 was stock which it is not.
