RENBACK, gonna try to save you some trouble down the road.....dont go with the 10,5:1 set-up. you'll be fighting PING big time. unless your planning on a bunch of other stuff. bigtime tuning, (retarding timing) either via controller or 4* gear. better get comp. releases while your getting the heads done. and if you decide to skip the releases, you'll be in the market for a starter. go with a nice flat-top build and not too much comp. you'll be better off and much happier in the long haul. steve
Also flowtest of the ports. I use well known tuners for this stuff.
On the other hand, I do not know what "ping" is...
And yeah, The only petrol avaliable in Sweden is 95octane and 98 octane. Is low octane fuel (87) causing ping?

Oh yeah?
Anyhow. Sorted a map for my setup. (SE Stage 1. Supertrapp 2:1. SE airfilter)
Anyone know a way via mapnumber to see if the map is Amerikan or European?

The U.S. rates fuel different, so for the same fuel our octane rating will show 4 to 5 points lower. So its not realy higher octane.

95 Octane RON equals to 90 Octane US AKI. Still a bit higher here in europe then.
"Regular sold in much of Europe corresponds to premium sold in the United States"
As I understand it octane rating is a value of the resistance of "knocking"
I "knocking" equal to "Pinging"?
Anyhow. Powercommander installed. Still can´t get the seat on properly but i´ll sort that out.
My Fat Boy runs very well with map downloaded. Not as hot as before. Plugs looks ok. Better torque. No spluttering, hesitation etc. Also a little bit lower RPM on Idle. So I am very happy!
Seems like I don´t need to dyno it before my build which saves me some money!
