Default 2008 FatBoy...What Aftermarket Air Cleaner?

Ok, I know that this has been asked a 1,000 times on this forum, BUT today is today and what was valid yesterday may not be so valid today based upon improvements/technology.

So...having said that, I'm trying to decide on an aftermarket air cleaner that will work go with the future purchased of some Vance & Hines 2 into 2 "curved down" pipes.

Thoughts...suggestions?

Thanks...I'm looking to change the cover out as well and have liked the looks of the Roland Sands'covers & the SE bullet shape.

What I want more than anything is "looks & performance personified".

You really are not going to get much of a performance difference between any of them. They are all a huge improvement over stock. Make sure you are looking into fuel management if you are improving intake air.

Just find one you like the looks of and put it on (helps if it fits into your budget as well) and ride away.
