How much difference does Se slip-ons and air filter really make. Can you feel it or does it just sound faster. Any dyno numbers?

Look in your HD catalog. THey have dyno charts in there that compare stock curves w/ curves that include various upgrades.

Yes, it does make a difference. It that alone a "dramatic change", maybe not, but it is noticeable.

I read an article last night in an old AIM on just this subject.
It had dynos for each variation.

Off the top of my head as I don't have the mag here at work...

Stock was 59 hp.

With slip ons & air cleaner like 67-68.

With slip ons,air cleaner,and PCIII 75 .

I'll look when I get home and give you exact numberS.

It makes a seat of the pants difference but our bikes are very slow stock and stage 1 they are still slow. I have the complete HTCC big bore kit and my bike is still slow but I can brag about all the money I spent. Maybe the bike is slow because my fat azz is on it!

Those numbers are correct. I imagine the numbers with the PCIII include a dyno tune. Anytime you allow more air and fuel through your bike you are going to notice an improvement.
