+1 on Rambler's comments. Consider his custom baffles for Rush mufflers (http://fuelmotousa.com/rush_fuelmoto) along with the PCIII and AC.

I visited there website a couple days ago. I guess i will spend the extra hundred and get the PC3. Can you just replace the air filter with a high flow K&N or do you have to change the backing plate to I would like to keep my stock cover.

You need to change the backing plate if you want to get the most out of a K&N filter set up.

PCIII is the way to go and fuelmoto is a good place to get one from.

Just for the sake of confusion,

I have and love my fuel pak. Easy to install, easy to program, and easy to update as you make changes to your ride.
Final note, GREAT customer service...

Just my opinion based on my experience......

I have had 4 twin cam 100+hp harleys(heads/strokers/big bore/cams,etc) w/PCs,TFIs,SERTs.All worked well in their arena.The sert is probablly the best/accurate for a built motor.Anyway,I bought a new 08 & will be keepin her fairly stock for warranty issues.Also,I don't want to be married to the dyno or tuner.I had the dealer install a SE air cleaner & do the Stage 1 download at the time of delivery.The bike ran pretty hot.I decieded to put a set of V&H tru duals on & was willing to let V&H be my proxy tuner & use their FuelPak.The thing really works nice.Better than I expected.Customer service is great,Adam helped with the map since I am running supertrapp discs mufflers on their pipes.Changed 2 settings & WOW!Runs great & Kool Too!NO DYNO DOLLARS!They are adding maps all the time.They now have a map for Andrews 26H cams for the 07 & 08 touring models.I chose the cheeper way this time,NO WORRIES & the bike will run OK if I need to take off the FP for my friendly dealer visits if needed.Regards,Tom

If you plan on doing more to your PUTT then the STAGE 1 - Then you need to look at the PC III or ThunderMax W\Auto Tune..

If you only plan on a Stage 1 - Then FUELPAK would be the way to go!!!

I have the Arlen Ness Big Sucker 1...My understanding is that it is NOT a K&N element but is very similar. Works for me and yes....You can keep the stock football cover

I agree 1000% with ya Pappy!

Stage 1- V&H pipes buy the Fuel Pak!

Planning any other motor mods other then Stage 1, go with the ThunderMax w/Auto Tune!
