A heavy duty clutch spring for the stock clutch can't hurt.

I have a '13FLHR- did the 57 with Pro-pipe, Big Sucker, SERT, and Dyno tune- done in the fall of 2015. I rode it all last year but wasn't really happy with the tune. I decided to have it tuned again this off season. I just got the numbers - 97.68 HP and 107.2 TQ. Not bad for no head work.

Lifters & brgs should be done as well.

Then if you get a good dyno tuner. You'll pick up a 10+h/p & torque that you'll leave on the table from the canned tune.

It's kinda funny. So $1500 bucks will pick you up 20&20

And a good dyno tune will net you an extra 10&10

I like cheap too......Just doesn't pay off all the time......Good luck
