Default 103 bb results?

Got an 08 ultra w/v h oval slip on`s and sert. 4000 miles on bike. Had an 04 se electra glide w/30.000 miles on it and a 99 ultra w/75,000 on it. So the thing is ..I like to tour and I also like a litte punch. Miss the 70 mph to 80mph punch with the slight turn of the throttle. So im courious to find out if anyone with my current set up has had the 103 bb kit put on same set up. Did they notice a difference and do they feel they can put 50,000 miles on the bike w/the build, or does the new throttle prohibit that punch im looking for. You imput is appreciated.

I have an 08 UC. Although I have not yet had the bike dynoed, My "butt dyno" can tell a big difference.
