Default S & S cam ?'s

I have a 2012 FLHTK, ride 2 up 95% of the time, it has a SE a/c V&H's true duels with V&H high output slip on's and a TTS tuner, here's the glitch,
I bought the mc used from a dealer, it was on consignment. The AC, exhaust and tuner was already installed I didn't know how the tuner thing worked, they did not have the tuner key and I wasn't educated enough at the time of the purchase to know any better, I know that I screwed up, I have talked to TTS about solving this, so now that you know the story here's the question, finely!

I want to install some cams, I'm wondering what to do as far as cams and the tuner, I know I have to redo the ECM back to stock and start over so to speak with a tuner, I'm just wondering if I should go back to the TTS or something different and I'm looking at the S&S MR103 Easy start cams, I'm also open to other cams, my buddy put in easy start cams, I really like the the way his bike turns over when starting.

I have read a lot on here about cams and tunes, just looking for suggestions. I'm not tying to start a debating war on cams and tuners!

We also ride, we put on 12'000 miles last summer so I want to get a lot of miles out of the MC.

Thanks in advance.

TTS is a great tuner / I use it on both bikes. Simple to load a program or really dial it in with a great tuner.

You don't need or want easy start cams since your bike has ACRs. I'm not a big fan of S&S cams, I'd suggest Tman 555 Torqster or Andrews 57s, as you know there are probably 20 similar cams out there that will do the job quite well Talk to whoever you plan to have tune the bike to see what cams he prefers, Jason at Faribault HD is an expert TTS tuner, you might talk to him & get recommendations.

I really don't understand why S&S only offers there new MR103 103 bolt-in cams with easy start??? 103s come with automatic compression releases so easy start is just redundant. I'm also a fan of Andrews 57 as bolt-in 103 cam. I admit to being a tuner idiot but there are only two I'd buy for a '07-'13 bike; TTS and Power vision. Pick the one the best tuner in your area likes.
