Default 2012 CVO Hypercharger

I'm thinking of adding a Kuryakyn Hypercharger and Rush Slip-on with 2 inch baffles to my 2012 CVO Softail Convertible. Can anyone offer advice as to what I problems I can expect? Will I need an aftermarket tuner and need to have it dyno'd, etc?

Thanks

Stay away from the Hypercharger. It doesn't add anything but complication. There are much better options available from H-D, K&N, and others. On a '12, just doing intake and slip-ons, you shouldn't need a dyno tune. And welcome to the Forum from Colorado!

Good advice, Hypercharger is bullshit, put your money into something that will actually do you some good, like cams or LEDs.

You'll just need a parachute to slow it down

Fortunately I was given the hypercharger so I'm not out anything. Guess I'll e-bay it and put the money towards new pipes.
