I finally got off my butt and rode with the FCS and HD oil cooler on my SG! Not being an tech wiz by any means; I was able to see/feel a noticeable degree in temps and soon I will have the thermo switch too !
Going down IH35 at 75-80 mph was a snap! And stop and go traffic in downtown Austin ?
Never so much as a hiccup temp wise from my mostly stock 96" In town is where the FCS came into its own !!
The FCS works wonders on my SG... will it work as well on my wife's Nightster also ? Just for her piece of mind

Got my FCS a few weeks ago, great product for sure with a great fit/finish. Since installing it I have gone into Baltimore for stop/go traffic to really test it out and the EITMS kicked on without effort. Turned the FCS on for the way back through town for all the lights and EITMS never kicked in. I would say that is a great testament to how well the product works!!

Also got a call from one of the chrome shops today, it will be about about 2 weeks before I get their sample back. More to follow.

I've noticed something with mine that I haven't seen mentioned here. Not only do I get the added cooling benefits, but now when I get gas, I leave my fans on and don't get the dreaded kickback/grinding from the starter on a hot restart. (FM 107 build) I replaced the comp with the SE comp, which took care of probably 70% of the kickback problems....but the cooling fans took care of another 20% or so. No more embarrassing grinding noises at the gas station. (you know, the ones that turn everyones heads to the source of the God awful noise)
