Finish up your stage 1 and you might find some gains, significant...that's a stretch. Until then, the "significant" gains were all in the beer your drank installing them and the great sound of a V&H system!
Not using a tuner or fuel pack since it is carbed, and I didn't rejet the carb due to it was already rejetted and so far so good. I do plan on getting a new air intake, much like you have on yours now, however I first want to get some other stuff done.

I don't know if you can go "stage 1" with a carburetor, but I did notice some performance gains, as far as the get up and go, and they do sound much nicer, louder, and meaner.

Oh and I do think they look much much better than the straight shots I had, it was a tough decision between these and the cholos....

bike is lookin awesome. You might want to think about floorboard extensions if you dont have them. That will keep your boots off of the front header. Ask NC D'lux about cleaning boot rubber off the pipes every week haha. Did you make it out to Daytona?
What floorboard extensions do you recommend, and no never made it to Daytona, my buddies backed out last minute...

Nope they bring the floorboards out about an inch
So no need for adjustments to the shifter & the braker.
They make a massive difference to the comfort level when your riding as well.
Dont know about you but b4 I got these extenders my feet were always on the edge of the boards now their right where they should be.
Cheep mod that is highly recommended.

Easy install as well? I guess just the removal of 3 bolts?

Super easy took me 1/2 hour & wrenching isn't my strong suit.
