Default 103 dyno results

Thought you guys might be interested in this..

We pickup a 2008 Street Glide on Friday,last week.

Bike had a T-man 103 stage 3 kit put in last year, w/ 58mm throttle body, hiflow injectors, D&D fat cat, super tuner..thats all i think.

Not running very well, so based on recommendation from this forum, we took it to Ed @ Dyno difference in Dallas friday afternoon.

After 4 hours of tuning, draining 30 oz of oil out of crankcase (sumping), new plugs, and correcting the previous guy's attempt at tuning (they had set it up as a 117 in computer)---

Bike ended up making 111/114, with 100lb.ft at 2400.
Basically a straight tq. curve all the way from idle to 6200. (not much curve to it) Damn pleased with that.

It is a HELLUVALOT of fun to ride..feels likeit lift the front wheel shifting to second.

Probably could have gone with smaller throttle body--58mm seems like over kill...bike was rich at almost every setting.

If you need a good tuner, call Ed in Dallas at Dyno Difference, though. Awesome guy. He called this morning just to check on bike and make sure we were happy. On a sunday.

Very nice! What kind of head work was included with the stage 3 package?

That's great news for you and me. I've been looking for a tuner down here in Houston but cant find one that anyone recommends. I'll have to give them a call. Congrats on the good tune and great numbers.

When they're sumping, they work like a torque converter. It's like a person trying to run with rubberbands around his legs. Glad you got it ironed out.

Sounds like a good running bike! Upping the displacement in the computer is pretty common in tuning though, When you raise it it gives the tuner more room for adjustment.

I personally don't put much stock in a person claiming numbers unless he posts his dyno sheet as well. Got one to post?
