205? Did you mean 204? If you go 95 with a 204, make sure you go with the hydraulic tensioner upgrade kit.

I had Head-Quarters HQ-0034 cams installed in my '04 EG about 4 years ago and haven't thought about a 95" since--great improvement in performance. As Dawg said, if you're going into the cam chest, get the HD hydraulic cam tensioner and hi-volume oil pump kit installed.

On the other hand, a painted inner fairing is a great cosmetic improvement, and there are tons of audio upgrades available that will make your riding more enjoyable.

Good luck with your choice.

There are better cams out there, but HD doesn't sell them.
