They didnt install the air clean, I did and then took it to them to have it tuned and all they say the did was change the jets but I don't know. They took the air cleaner off and tried differant things but they put it back on and told me that's the best they could do with it and that was that

What's the part number of the heavy breather intake kit that you installed? Like I said previously, they do not make a heavy breather for a carbed bike and I just checked the Screaming Eagle catalog again. http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US..._SE13_Full.pdf From the symptoms you described, the engine has a breathing problem. The only SE intake you can run on that bike is 29440-99D. I would put a K&N filter on it though.

Ok so I have took the 88 sportster needle out and I found out that I have the dyno jet kit in it last night. I put the 190 main jet back in it and the 45 slow jet. I put the needle on the 4th notch down and put the mixture screw at 2.5 turns out. Still ran horrible up top. I've messed with the mixture screw a little more and cleaned the plugs and still no better at all. Where do I go from here? If I have to take my intake off I'm don't with the bike and I'm gonna get rid of it. Please someone help me out here I am clueless from this point

That is classic reversion, with the big radious pipes, if the intake is a larger diamiter than stock then you are not getting enough velocity when the reversion hits the carb.
Sell it.

The intake is between the carb and the heads, the air cleaner is, well everyone know where that is.

Still the same problem, you are having a reversion/breathing problem compounded with the extended air cleaner.
