Default Quick stage 1 question?

Have new slip-on's. Decated manifold. Ordered a FP3 tuner. If I add a high flow air cleaner. Will the FP3 take care of that? Or is Dyno required? Thanks

if you have a 2014+ air cleaner, look into a K&N high flow filter

if you have earlier, your best bang for buck and easiest install is the ness big sucker w/ CHROME backing plate
ebay- easternpc usually about $115 shipped

2011 Electra Glide Ultra Limited. Now I am going to research and see which air cleaner gets me the most bang for my buck. Don't need to spend $500.00 but I figured if I got a tuner why not. Thanks

Sorry I read that wrong. I thought that was for a bike 2014+ not the filter. K&N seems to be the most reasonable as well.


Ordered the Big sucker. 116.00..Have time too cold at the moment. Now looking for a cover thanks for all the help.

Most likely I am going to reuse my stock cover. I did not see anything that stood out. Keeps the price way down. Keeps it simple. Clean lines as well. Thanks
