Default V&H Fuel-Pak

I want to get a Fuel-pak for my Classic. I am not wanting to go drag racing. Will the Fuel-pak be good enough with Vance & Hines Duals and Ovals. Will it cool it down and and take away the lean condition. Thanks for the help MDodson

Some will complain about the FP, but I've had great results with it. With Stage-1 & the Ovals, it works well. I haven't checked the temps, but it did OK sitting for the endless time it takes to get through Sturgis during the rally. Lots of maps available, as long as you're running V&H exhausts. Takes about 15 minutes to install.

I am running V&H pipes and the fuel pack
Happy with it so far.
Have put on about 1000 miles so far and all seems very good.

I run Vance & Hines True Duals with Rush 2.50 mufflers and a Screamin' Eagle air filter kit and I'm very happy with the set up.

Only people that usually say smack about them, never had one. I had one and went to PCIII looking for better performance, what I got was not much better at all, wish I had kept it. No start delay with it like the PCIII has on 06/07 models.

It works fairly well on mine.

I'm using it as a money savings tactic to allow me to keep from spending big bucks on Dyno-tuners, PCIII, and SERT's or Dealer Program changes.

Using it as a stop-gap measure for going straight into a DTT with close loop tuning and dual wide band o2 sensors.

It is not a cure all, but it does work.

I've got the vance and hines on my '07 Ultra. The Fuel-Pak is great for form following function. It was intended for the simple mod of just air intake and exhaust. Do much more than that and you'll probably want to get something more intended for that purpose. Plus on the grand scale of things, they are only a couple hundred bucks on ebay, which makes them a great stop gap for down the road and you want to turn your bike into a big bore. Mine works really well with my duals and ovals. No heat issues... couple times my oil guage thermometer said I was at like 170 deg. (of course once was riding in upper 20 degree weather) but typically its sits right around 190... and I'm averaging probably around 47 mpg. Works great for what its intended, then down the road you can probably sell the thing and get the thundermax and not be out too much cash. I dunno, I swear by my Fuel-Pak

My experience has been the same. I had the FuelPak with their Oval Slip-Ons and thought it was great. I'm now running the SE Street Performance Touring Mufflers with it and have the same great results. Highly recommended! As someone else has said, their support is good on the phone but it takes a while to hear from them on email. But Adam in Technical Support has been great to help me fine tune the settings for my particular bike.
