Default V&H FUEL PAcK

I have an '08 Deluxe and getting ready to do a pipe change with that I heard I need to change the fuel jetting. I wanted to know if anyone has heard anything about the V&H fuel pack? I heard it was an inexpensive way to go.

I have the fuel pak and it works well. The bike runs very strong. I think it is a good choice if you are only going to change the pipes and air cleaner. If you plan on any other mods, you would be better off with a power commander. Good Luck!

i have a fuel pak on my '08 deluxe. It runs rich with lots of popping. Don't care for it very much kinda disappointed. Called V&H and described my issues to them and they say it is normal. I am not smart enough to know if they are bullShi%%^^me or not. I would try the power commander

I have one right now and fairly happy with it....it pops less with no baffles but soon will be getting a thundermax or SE. Thundermax is a good investment for the future in case you do any motor work but not an expert on it. I know that their has been many posts and tons of comments on this subject though.

I installed the fuelpak in my rocker c with the big radius vance and hines 2 in 2 pipes and no problems with their programmed value settings. Runs well and happy.
Although it wasn't an easy install on my model which required patience and time.

+1 I have the FuelPak on both of my bikes and have no issues with them. They're very easy to program and I don't plan on changing them.

Ur 08 is EFI and does not have jets to change.
the V&H is one of many options to change Ur FM system.
U need to do a search in here on them and read and learn if thats what U want..

If Ur only doing pipes U don't really have to change anything else..

R U leaving Ur A/C stock, if so U don't really need any FM change..

If U haven't read any on the other FM systems, I still recommend doing that before buying the V&H's pac..
