Voids the 2 year warranty and any extended warranty, makes the bike nonemission compliant, ruins the head pipe in case you have an issue and need the stock set up for major warranty work. Combine the above with the fact it doesn't all come out unless you make a project of removing it, sells me on buying a set of head pipes w/o CATS and keeping the CAT head pipes on the shelf.

That's what he tells me. We will see after I get it installed and broken in. Personally for my I'm not really looking for a Hot Rod just a more pleasant ride especially when riding 2up through these west coast mountains.

The Mrs. 2014 Stage 1 uses more fuel then my 2015 Stage IV. IMO the engine kit components are not the problem its the Stage IV download holding back the performance creating heat by running too lean to meet emissions. My bike runs hot and its 60 degrees here, not looking forward to the 90's and triple digits we see this summer ;-(
Also noticing the same "pop" I had after installing cams on my 07, the dyno tuner told me its was too lean creating the popping, just more evidence the S IV download doesn't come close to serving this S IV build any good.
V&H PD's, TTS, Guru Tuned and keep the stock head pipes on the shelf (just in case) makes more sense then running lack luster and ridiculously lean burning up the top end.

HD advertised 98HP/ 103TQ and it certainly close enough, but the 859.00 for the tuner and the tune is bitter sweet. Thanks 
Thank you.
Yes Bob got the numbers and its like another bike. The pull from 3K to 6K is pleasing and kind of spooked me (just a tad) riding the test loop around and back to the shop.
