Default Screamin' Eagle Heavy Breather

Has anyone put the Screamin' Eagle Heavy Breather air cleaner on their 08 touring bike yet? I'm looking at adding this to my Street Glide. Thoughts?

I already have the Screamin' Eagle High Flow air cleaner (Stage 1). Will it require a remap different from that?

If it is a different breathing part (not just different cover) then it will require the ECU to get its VE tables repopulated properly, no matter what you change on the engine.

I had the dealer do my SERT tune when I put my air cleaner and true duals on last time. I've had experience with loading the Power Commander. Since I already have a tune loaded for the Stage 1 High Flow air cleaner and true dual exhaust, can someone point me in the right direction (link in the forum) for using SERT to re-calibrate for this change?

I added the SE AC last week.&nbsp\\; It required a remap on my 08 RK.&nbsp\\; I was really surprised at the difference in pick up.&nbsp\\; I have been very happy with the AC. &nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;
