Default E3 3.36 Plugs

Installed E3 3.36 plugs in my 2012 Heritage Softail. What I like about them is you don't have to set the gap, it's pre-set.

What bags you got? And what year?
My post right above yours shows my police bags on my 04 heritage..baggertail brackets..

EDIT:: I see you didn't use baggertail bracket..so I spoke way too soon about relocating your tail lights..
and also doesn't have the connector piece that goes under the fender..I hope this doesn't come back to bother you..
Bags will get bouncy/shaky..more so as you load em up

If I had the whole thing to do over again I would have gone with the cycle vision bagger tail kit.
I haven't had a chance to take the bike out yet so I'm not sure how much bounce it will have at speed. Maybe there will be a way to keep it from wiggling too much.

Road the Lo to work and back, gave it some TLC with a wash and polish after work. It looked so good, had to take it for a rip...

Got my light bar installed and wired up. I like the small bullet lights. Going to have to change the front blinkers now to match./sigh

Dropped my Slim off at the dealer. Getting the garage door opener installed and they are checking to see why there is an exhaust leak. You can see it discoloring the cover on the trans. And still waiting to hear what they will do with the pipes as far as warranty. There is pitting and discolor on the shields. Hoping I will be able to change to black pipes.

Thumbs up Saga of the 2014 FLSTC

Bought 2014 FLSTC and installed V&H slashcut slip ons, and HD Ventilator intake. Let the decal popping begin! Tried XIED from Knightrider......not much help. Didn't want to spend $1000 at dealership so ordered the FP3 from Vance & Hines. All I can Say is Wholly S#$T!!! Bike runs like it is on fire! No decal popping, No throttle lag, No engine pulsing! Just used the canned MAP, will try Autotune next. FP3 is everything advertised and more!

M1A1, Sounds like the FP3 nailed it for your bike right out of the box, I know you probably won't (none of us can resist) but if I was you I'd pass on the auto tune if it's running that good. Myself and others on here ran great on V&H map, tried auto tune to no avail and ended up going back to their first map anyway. If it ain't broke don't fix it, but then, we all love to play don't we? Congrats on the new bike.

I hear you.
I installed my FP3 with canned map to match my exhaust (V&H BSS) on my 2014 Slim. Runs really well and decel popping is COMPLETELY gone.
I changed the standard baffles with BCT thou so it not a perfect match. Will try the autotune just to play with it and see how it goes.

The beauty of the FP3 is that you can go back, try this and that anytime with your phone. Really cool.
I also lowered the idle rpm a little (after talking to V&H to make sure and double check on the values).
