Is this something that can be used as a Stage 1 upgrade or is this more advanced? Thanks for your input.

I'm not a fan of these Hypercharger intakes b/c they're more for show than beneficial performance. The airflow creates "vortex" affect within the housing so motor doesn't get good flow/intake. There are much better breathers out on market (depending on your UG plans) and cheaper too...(Arlen Ness, HD heavy breather, etc.).

The only plans I have for "now", is new exhaust, then eventually an air cleaner and fuel pack of some sort. I already have the exhaust, but probably wont be ready for the new air cleaner and fuel pack for a while. Just kind of seeing whats out there for now. Appreciate the feedback.

Saw one of these for the first time last week. Big ugly sumbitch. Sticks out a long way and I'd be worried about the leg clearance.

If its anything like the older Hyperchargers then I'd steer clear. They don't flow very well, they break after a couple of years, they leak oil from the breather bolts and the chrome peels off.
