If you knew what kind of slip ons you have along with the air cleaner, you could get a map that should be all set for that set up. You can still use it, just might have to play with the afr and ignition to get it to run the way you want.

hey ultra just put the damn thing on lol.. we both got our from the same guy and u know Walmart happened to mine. if nothing else I'd at least make sure it works properly.. he seems to be wiling to help out with any issues that u may have. I also found that Matt with Dynojet is willing to help out a lot even tho the unit wasn't bought new

As long as you put a tune in it for air intake and slip-ons it should be fine, if you had cams and didn't know what they were that would be different. Post up a pic of your slip-ons and see how fast members let you know what they are!
