96 vs 103
had a 96 and it felt more responsive down low and i assume a higher cube engine will produce a broader torque band... does the 103 have the same cmas as 96??? not wanting to replace cams, im happy with the power above 2500 rpm just soft down low..... se 255???? whats the specs on them????? lift and duration and what kind of increase in power do they provide?????

The larger displacement would only spin up slower if the stroke was increased, not on a larger bore.

700 miles
on the clock... pretty sure its a tuning issue. if the 96 and 103 have the same cams then 103 should be a little snappier down low and lose some top end.....i feel like it should have more torque down low than it has...

i came off a 2008 96 inch strret glide with a simple power commander, stage 1 and rinhart slipons , had same issues as you was dissapointed in the 103 , i just put vance and hines x pipe on on friday - no cat !! with a set of riney 4 inch slipons , it sounds way better and bottom end tourque is there , just need a re map and it should be almost perfect. I was very frustrated for about the past 6 weeks since i got it. i had to do my own homeowork and with help from the guys in here on the forumn . Dealer wasnt much help for me good luck
