With a proper map you should be seeing TQ peaking at around 100 @ 3200 or whereabouts, with HP in the low 80's. The TQ curve is very flat, thus giving you lots of useful power at the RPM's where you may ride the most (2000-4500 rpms).

One thing for sure is that your Stage 1 download (map) won't work well for this cam swap. IMO you don't need a dyno tune with the 255's if you have a PCV with specific Fuel Moto map or PCV with Auto-Tune. I know FM has a map for an '07 with 255's, and am fairly sure they have one for the '08 as well. Give them a call. You won't get any hard-sell BS from them. OTOH if you decide on SEST or TTS you likely won't have any canned-map options, making a dyno-tune a requirement. You could check with Latus HD, who may have a SEST map for this setup ($50).

let us know how he works out. the more "flowers" this tuner gets from different individuals, the more "cred" he will have on here, which could result in more work for him and more happy riders.
