I've had the H-D Stage 1 download from day one. My bike has been running great with no issues. Starts easy. Gas mileage averages at about 42 mpg. Power is more than adequate for me, and that is with two-up riding most of the time. I know alot can be done with a fuel management system like a Power Commander, but I say if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Just my .02
What pipes and AC do you have?

it really won't change things that much from non-hd parts. I wouldn't worry about it. It's your motor though, so ultimatly it comes down to what you are comfortable with.

Only one HD stage 1 download that I know of. It's a generic stage 1 for an upgraded a/c and exhaust. Your bike would be fine with it. Mine runs great.

SE air cleaner and SE Pro Performance slash down slip on mufflers. The mufflers are "race only" and were no longer available after 2006. Oh, I should also mention that I had my original 8 degree injectors uprgaded to 25 degree and the ECM re-flashed for them. I had some intake coughing/stalling early on and the injector swap was done by my dealer under warranty. Been smiling ever since.
