Kit cost me $2,300 AUD and that included the bigger SE Heavy Breather Intake to suit the 58mm throttle body.

HP is around 116
TQ is around 115

In about 500km's she'll have a proper dyno tune to dial it in 100%

I brought the bike from Frasers MC here in Perth including every HD part for my build. I'm good mates with the manager and a few of the boys there, so hence the good price.

I didn't need the SE super tuner as I already had one from the original setup, so they took that out of the Stage IV kit (my price for the kit was $2,500 + $300 for the 58mm SE heavy breather induction - less $500 for the SE tuner = $2,300 inc)

Install is about 10 hours by a professional mechanic (a mate of mine) that knows Harley's inside out & back to front = $750

I also got him to give the bike it's first service as its done 1,500 km's = $250

Funny story ... I walked into my HD dealer on Tuesday expecting to replace my headlamp reflector under warranty (long story) and walked out with the HD Black LED Daymaker.

I liked the fact that it's 100% plug n play but the problem was that the Performance Machine Apex Contrast Cut headlamp housing that I have tappers in too much and doesn't accomodate the headlamp as it's got all those heat-sink fins on the back.

No problem, my HD buddy got to it with a dremel and grinder and remoulded the heat-sink fins to fit my PM headlamp bucket and now she fits like a glove.

The light it gives out it absolutely sensational when compared to the stock setup ... I should've done this sooner.

Sweet setup, excellent taste!
I gotta say that the stock headlight aint worth a paperweight in my unused office, I have flashlights that would make this sad excuse for a lamp look like a candle.
I ended up with a headwinds vampire concours, added in an LED 80W conversion kit.
Pretty sure the dear may think a plane is about to set down and bolt for the trees :-)
