Welcome from Virginia.
You can do the pipes without a remap if you want. Then when you do the A/C you will need a remap

Thanks guys. Good to be here. Great info.

Would it be safe to say that the V & H Pipes and A/C would be fine with the HD Download & reamp (Stage 1?)?

Or have I entered the 3rd party tuner land (i.e. Power Commander)?

Sorry for the lack of brain matter, I am an old carb guy when all you needed was the right drill bit for the jets...

This is what my wife did to her sporty this summer. This is all that you need, the remap will take care of the AF mixture and the dealership will Dyno it. The SERT was used to remap so you would need to consider that in you purchase price. After remap you don't need any think extra on your bike to keep the right AF mixture ect. If you change again you would might need to remap again, but should beable to use the sert you got originally, then just pay for dyno time.

There are do it yourself options as well if you interesting in trying to tune it with out a Dyno. Many posts on the forum regarding that subject.

That is what I did on my Ultra pipes and A/C they did a map on the A/F mixture. Now it is cams and a stage II map, I just want more torque at the bottom....
