In the video that the OP posted, it looked like the boost gauge was at 18lbs and climbing............
Gotta wonder about the longevity of a HD style motor pushing that much boost.
Don't get me wrong, I run 18lbs on the street and 24lbs at the track, but thats on a V-8 with a forged crank..........apples vs oranges. LOL

That Road King has to run too hot to even begin to ride for any length of time!

I have a streetglide with the 120R motor. I also had seriously thought of a pro charger until watching your build and reviews. Thank you for saving me several thousand dollars. I'm gonna put that money towards a breakout now.

Wait. You didn't really save me any money. Lol

Please don't interpet my Procharger reveiw as negative. I was just trying to get the message across that my Procharged 120R SG would not be ideal for "long hauls". With that said, part of it is due to my Corbin seat and "slammed" rear. The other part is due to the fact that I am constantly ride in boost (high rpms).

Yeah, you are right. The intercooler is on the softails is actually bigger than the ones that come on the baggers

I did not take it as negative. But I also know that there is a "point" where enough is enough. I use my bike for everything from a quick 30 minute ride to get away to a several hundred mile trip on a weekend. My next step is roller rockers. Other than that, throw these rear shocks in the garbage and get ohlins.
