Your FLHXS still made right at 10% over the previous 103's with similar mods. My 2011 with a Stage 2 (SE254's), exhaust, AC and SEPST did 87rwhp/103rwt as the baseline run before building my FM107.
I am ecstatic with it. She made the higher end of the power range for these builds, it was performed by a Harley dealer which covered all the work under the remaining warranty (still in affect through March 2014) and, with the 30T sprocket upgrade, the power comes on really quick. I am very impressed ... she makes 100+ ft-lbs from 2600 rpm all the way to the rev limiter and 120+ ft-lbs from 3000-4125 rpm.
There is still a few more rwhp left in it since the tuner shut it down at 5800 rpm when the rwhp was still climbing. It will go back on the dyno soon with a different tuner. That dyno was also with Bassani 4" Megaphones and 2-1/4" long baffles and I have since gone to a Bassani 4" Slash Cut with a custom 2-1/4" shorter baffle (Bassani does not offer 2-1/4" baffles in their slash cuts).

I show a new, stock, FLHT 103 ci as having 70.92 hp and 88.90 Torque. Readings taken on 13' FLHT in Indianapolis. I do not have the environmental readings for this run. I just wanted to provide a baseline.
My 2011 Rod King Classic after putting on the Arlen Ness Big Sucker (Stage I) air kit, Fuel Moto's Micro Tuner, which HD tuned, and VH Dresser Duals and Monster Rounds yeilded approx 74 HP and 92.3 torque. This was taken on at 72 degrees and 19% humidity.
I was tired of the routine so I could either chose a (A) new woman (too expensive)...(B) a new job (same bullshit different place)... or (C) a new engine! ....Thanks Fuel-Moto!

... now those are great numbers from a 117". I would love to know the cost compared to my 107" build, a 120R and your 117". I understand 120R's are running between $6k-$7k out the door not including a clutch to handle it.
Daaaamn ... the curves almost identically match my curves except with a 20rwhp/rwt difference all the way through. I know how much fun mine is to ride and I can only imagine what another 20rwhp/rwt would be like .... congrats on a super successful build. Good luck with it.
