Default new exhaust

I have a 07 sportster, I have ordered new exhaust, fuel pak, and stage 1 a/c. Do I need a ecm download with the fuel pak, or would just the fuel pak be good enough?

Thank you, I wasn't sure if I needed the ecm, but are you saying just the map for the fuel pak will work right.

yep... its one or the other... you can get the ecm download or use the fuel pak or any other fuel management system you prefer... but since you have the fuel pak give them a call or use the site i posted and you can actually find the map on the site(most of the time anyway)

what upgrades did you get?
