Default Andrews 48s are in

Well boys, the Andrews 48s are in and I am pretty happy with the numbers. I just need the weather to cooperate and get some time off work to get on it for the most important test. The torque ended up at 113.73 ft lbs which was what I really wanted for my riding style. This should wake my 2012 fugly ultra up a bit. I'll let you know.

I just did my 48's. Don't have the dyno yet. What tuner are you using? What else have you modified?

Did you need compression releases with this install ??
Will be interested to hear your report once you have put a few miles on...
as I'm debating between the Andrews 48h and S&S 551 easy starts.

I didn't get compression releases, if fact it was never even brought up. My bike is stock other than what I have listed. I am really excited to take it out for a ride. Like I said earlier the 2014 ultra rental was very noticeable with the new cams installed, I hope the 48s are even better in my fugly. I will let you know my thoughts as soon as the weather breaks. Thanks for reading.

ACR's wouldn't be needed. Compression not an issue.
