Default fuel systems

i know there have been 100 threads on fuel systems but searched and haven't found an answer im looking for. i havent decided between SERT, PC3, thundermax w/autotune. .i've found alot of people on herethat are happy with the thundermax...but most only havehigh flow air cleaner and exhaust which i have done-download,rineheart true duals and SE air cleaner. but in year or 2 i want toadd cams, head work, or go with BB kit of some sort....so my questions is will the thundermax with autotune keep up with all of that? i dont have the money to do it all at once so i have to go in steps. i dohave a reputable dyno shop here in town so tuning shouldnt be a problem if i go with a SERT. does anyone on here have thundermax with cams,major headwork or BB kit???

I had the PC3 on my '03 and I went with the SERT for my '07. I'm much happier with it and I don't have to hide it under the seat. I think with what you want to to and how you want to do it, SERT would be the best choice. Hopefully, you have someone that is good on the dyno in your area. Good luck.

the thundermax will work great for all the upgrades you have planned. the auto-tune will eliminate the need of a dyno. i feel this is your best bang for the buck.IMHO

That's the beauty of the T-Max, it'll grow with you and just about any mod you make.

SERT will be the most costly up front.

TMAX is awesome, I had some reservations when I did my motor work, but found a map "close" and within 100 miles it was pretty well dialed in. After about 500 she was ripping pretty awesome. Here is the post I did after the dyno run just for fun... https://www.hdforums.com/m_2957963/m...tm.htm#2958375

Let me know if you have any questions, just PM or email me. Good luck
