Once that was solved I went to hi flow air cleaner and the supertrapps ( which I use on a number of bikes).

Many thousands of miles of good operation, MPG at 43 MPG ( was 44 MPG before Xieds)

No to both questions...had an '08 UC and now have a '12 UC.

So yes, I'm familiar with the HD EFI system, "ied's" as well as their variants, and tuning in general.

The OP seems to suggest he needs additional fueling because

Apparently he's under the impression that just adding fuel pretty much across the map will make the plugs look "a lil on the rich side.." and thus better.

If he simply wants the plugs to look richer, all he needs to do is either increase or decrease the plug gap enough to cause them fire less efficiently. Both ways will normally cause the plug to collect carbon and thus look richer and won't cost a single penny.

If he has reasons beyond "rich-looking" plugs, then I strongly stick by my first post.
