Just got back from a few a two hour ride after installing my new toy's from Fuel Moto (2-1-2 pipe, Jackpot tuned mufflers, PC-V and stage 1 intake).

2010 HD SG....Air temp 84 degrees, sunny day, not a cloud in the sky

The first thing I noticed was when I started the engine. Stock it would almost die when cold, now she starts and runs steady at around 1000 RPM'S then drops to 800 after warm-up. In neutral at any RPM setting the engine is smooth and steady, no popping, no miss-fire.

I was a little skeptical about the mufflers being too quiet but those concerns quickly went away. During idle she has a that nice Harley tone, not to loud, not to quiet. When cruising around 45-65 MPH I can here the pipes but not so loud I can't hear my tunes (gotta hear the tunes). Now the most important test, getting on it......., during throttle-up these babies bark like a Pit Bull, best sound I've heard so far and I've owned a lot of mufflers in my day. Also during deceleration she did not back-fire once.

Now the best part of this mod, my pant leg did not catch on fire. Exhaust temperature was noticeable lower. My oil temperature gauge (which is very accurate and was calibrated using a infrared thermometer, and yes the gun has also been checked) would read as high as 280 degrees on a hot day, the highest I noticed was 246 degrees. Wow what a difference. I'm now a happy camper!!!!

Kudos to Jamie and all those involved making my purchase a very satisfying experience. I would/will highly recommend FM to all of my friends.

 

I also installed a power package on my stock '03 Electra and am happy with the results. One thing I encountered though is that I had to put a lot of upward pressure on the mufflers for them to reach the rear mounting brackets. And now my left muffler is lower than the right one because of the pressure. Did you have that problem?

 

How is the throttle response compared to stock?

 

Docharley, how long did the install take? pretty easy? any tips? I purchased the same package and going to do the install when and if i ever get a day off work.

 

Glad to here that, my 2/1/2 headpipe from FuelMoto was shipped today.

 

Very happy with my Fuel Moto setup Rineharts, SE air cleaner, and PCV.

 

What baffles did u go with ? They offer 3 diffrent ones ! Thanks

 

There was a slight amount of pressure needed to install at the brackets but not much. Maybe you're crossover is turned downward making it difficult to install the muffler?

Trick I learned was to not tighten the pipe support bracket (the one near the 02 sensors) until after you install the crossover and muffler. You may also want to loosen the bolts at the flange, install the mufflers and crossovers, tighten the support then the flange bolts. Make sure when you tighten the flange bolts the pipes are proper installed/inserted in the exhaust ports.

Kinda hard for me to say exactly but there is definitely a noticeable improvement in throttle response. Feels like my old RK with a 103 motor.

Total about 4 hours.

Heres the way I did it......install the 2-1-2 pipe leaving the flange bolts loose but not too loose (Make sure the billet flanges are installed in the exhaust ports)

Install the crossover pipe leaving the clamp loose (don't forget the gasket).

Install the mufflers and muffler support bracket bolts.

Make any necessary adjustments.

Tighten the crossover clamp, muffler clamps and muffler support bolts, (make sure you align the mufflers so the angle is the same)

Now the flange bolts and lastly the support bolt (near the 02 sensors).

Note: If you tighten the exhaust pipe support bracket first the job becomes much more difficult.

Good Luck!
