You can run slip ons without fuel management, if change the breather then you will need to re-map or re-jet

I put V&H slipons on my 07 with no fuel management and all is well. GREAT inexpensive improvement.

What are you wanting to achieve? If all you want is sound, you're ok.

If you wan timproved performance, you need to the the fuel map, and even better performance do the A/C and fuel map.

I was at the Lone Star Rally last weekend and heard some V&H Slip-ons that just did it for me, so i want the sound but i also want a little more throttle response!!!

I have an 09 Ultra that I added Bub 7 slip-ons to. Nothing else. The bike sounds good and runs great. Seems to pull a little better.

To be safe, do a stage 1 download. $200 more is cheap insurance compared to a scored cylinder wall or worse. JMO.

If you want sound and response, pay a little extra and get a SE High Flow A/C and a Vance & Hines Fuelpak. You can install all of these yourself and save yourself some $$$$. Go online to Eastern Performance and you can get them all for quite a savings.

$20,000 bike and you're worried about a couple hundred bucks? Yes, you could probably get away with just the slip ons but why? Don't be in such a hurry and do it right. Get the Race Tuner, high air flow air filter and your choice of slip ons. Your bike will run and act better than ever. It's worth the wait and expense IMO.

I've had Rush slip ons on my past two bike now. I know their not the most expensive but they sound and perform great! Love them. Good luck with which ever decision you make.

Do the slip ons and ride.
