I have a 2008 SG and am going to put the 103 stage 2 kit on...in a week or so. That is the kit with the cams, cylinders pistons, ect.... any suggestions at all?
I was thinking of going with different Cams (gear driven) than what comes in the kit. if so what ones?
Like Ice said, you have them off anyways. Also, all of the real performance is in the heads, and for the performance you get, its not a bad value. But if you do the heads use someone reputable, there are a lot of people who claim to make tons of power, and don't know the first thing about it.
I paid my HD dealer to do the 103 last month with the SE tuner, SE 25 cams, BUB 7 &true duals, SE a/c, and stock 96" heads.
It made a new bike out of it without the head work. And my fuel mileage slightly improved with significantly more motor performance. From 38-40 MPG to 40-42 MPG. You'll be happy. Be sure to get 3 hr of dyno time to set up the tuner properly.
I forgot to mention.. i still have the factory warrantee..lol i kinda want to keep it. so i was thinking i could just go with some better cams? i dont think the cams that come in the kit are gear driven,, i think they are just like the stocks,, just higher lift??
