Cool T-Man Performance

Has anybody done business with T-Man Performance in N.Carolina? Considering using him for my upgrade project on the 08 Ultra.Looking at going to a 107" engine kit.

Zipper's recommended him as a tuner for the TMax when I had map issues. His website reflects a pretty strong resume of quality and performance, the best thing to do is call and have a chat about what you expect for your bike....this should be the initial step with any build. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I tried to use him for some tuning issues and it was real tuff to get it set up. After a couple months, I finally got a date to drop the bike off. 2 days before the tune date, my wife got hit on her bike so it never happened. Everyone says that the shop is very good but just a little difficult to work with. Who knows, you may have better luck as you are doing a build. I think he is just very busy with the heads and stuff that he ships out and it is just tuff to get in the schedule.

Default good by rep

Expensive, get the real HP ~ 139 hp out of a 124 S&S. Dyno'd here. There are others with less notoriety that gets the same results at 1/2 the price. He does fill & CNC heads. Be prepared to spend and wait. Does a good job. I have never seen the high numbers some other shops claim to get out of cubic inches. Maybe Ft. Laauderdale has bad air or maybe too much hot air at other places! I am talking on using a Dynajet 2500 for the #'s. I am in no way refering to T- Man
