well, after reading all the good, bad, and the ugly on the XiED's, i took the plunge and ordered it. put them on today, and was blown away. less engine heat? check. much better throttle response? check. more power that i can really feel? check. now i know every bike is different, so before all the haters chime in, just let me say this...it worked like on charm on my bike.

I've had mine on for two years and love them. Got rid of my VH Fuelpak and never looked back.

I had a similar experience with their ViED's...

Your signature reads "2011 FXS V&H pipes, Stage 1 air intake, HD race tuner, Todds Cycle bars, XiED"

Why do you need the HD race tuner and XiEDs?

because the tune the dealer put on when i bought the bike was still too lean, and i don't want to pay for a dyno tune until i do a cam swap...just because you have a tuner doesn't mean your problems are solved...

May as well save a few bucks and go with the XiED's.
The lower settings on the ViED's aren't much richer than the factory lean.
I ended cranking my ViED's nearly all the way up to find the "sweet spot", which is basically the same AFR settings already built-into the XiED's...
