Default Help! New pipes and air cleaner..

I have a 2007 1200 nightster it has an Arlen and Ness "big sucker" and I just order Vance & Hines "short shots". Do I need to get this dynoed? Re-mapped? Or just add the pipes and ride?

Please help!

I'd get some type of fuel management system. You'll get a lot of opinions on which one to go with. Depends on how much tuning capability you want.

Thanks for your time! I'm just trying not to burn my engine up. How much is a fuel management system? And who makes good ones?

Thanks again.

If your just looking to richen it up so it doesn't burn up, the guys from DK are right, and it's probably the cheapest route. ($100) I run a Fuelpak by V&H on mine. New, they are around $250. Bunch of others out there that give you more tuning capability.

Same topic for the 10000000.00000000.00000th time. Yeah i would add some sort of tuning devise. I have the PC III with a dyno tune and my bike runs awesome! I vote we just get rid of the search funtion on here.
