There was one of those my Springer when I bought it, and I hated it. They make a flapping sound at idle due to the vacuum actuated butterflies. The bike had a bluh, bluh, bluh, bluh, bluh sound at it made a funky noise when you cut the bike off and vacuum released the butterflies. You may have no problem with this, but I at least wanted you to know about it if you didn't.

Hyperchargers are the worst intake upgrade on the market. Mounting them to a fuel injected bike is also somewhat technically involved. I believe you'll have to remove your tank and possibly drill and tap your intake manifold. Download the installation instructions and read up on it.
You'll be better off with a simple efficient design like the Big Sucker.

Not sure if thats true as i had one on my 07 Softail and did not need to do any off above.
Mind you its not on my bike now as its ugly as sin,
I have a pro hypercharger on my other bike (Don't tell my wife it is still in the garage...LOL) and I left the butterflies unhooked so they stay wide open all of the time. Works fine. Has a K+N filter.
I think they are garbage too. I do think that Kuyakyn's marketing team did well on the name. Hypercharger does make it sound like it would add all kinds of power. But, it doesn't.....
Oh ad milty, the wiping your *** comment made me almost spit coffee all over my laptop
