exhaust question
Ok so I have a hopefully simple question. I just scored a set of v/h monster ovals and the 2-1-2 power duals and will be putting them on my 12 electra limited.
The question is, if I put both both of them on the bike (I know the answer is no if I just put the slip ons ) but do I need to do a download or tuning because ill be removing the cats?
Eventually I want to put the ventilator on there and that I know needs a tuning of some form sert..or pcv.
Thanks

There you have it - one says "yes" and one says "no". What to do?? I'll tell ya what my thoughts are - FWIW. If it was me ( I know, it ain't), I would install the slip-ons for now. When you get the $$$ to purchase the air cleaner and buy a tuner, then install the header, A/C, tuner and re-install the slip-ons. When that's done, have it dynoed - then you know it's right.
That's what I did and it worked out well for me. But it's your call. Good luck.

Either way you will do right by your bike.

thanks for all the recommendations! so basically what i am getting here is, i can put the S/O on now and i really should think about at least a tuner with the headers and maybe just bite the bullet and do the A/C all at the same time. which is kinda what i was thinking i would need to do.
Hey VT i see you have the mustang super touring seat, how do you like that? been thinking about doing either that or the regular touring seat but heated ( the oL wants the heat)

Love the seat...way better than the stock seat. Not a negative but one thing I will warn you is that the seat does move you back maybe 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the stock seat, so if you are at the limit of where you want to be right now its something to consider. I made the decision to change out my bars after riding it for a couple of hundred miles, but I am glad I did because the combination of the seat and bars made this an all-day bike.
