I know, but I have never heard of Delphi offering the ability to tune thier own system, seems like they would have had a licensing agreement with harley to prevent that. I am interested in hearing more about it. Iam thinking it is probably the dynojet pv tuner that he has licensed

It's because they don't.

If you want the most down-low stump pulling torque, go with the 255's, if you want peak numbers go with Woods, Andrews, HQ, etc..... But with "just doing cams", you're never going to have both low-end stump pulling power and high peak numbers, just isn't gonna happen. You should have read all of the other posts more closely. Or at least go to the "bagger dyno numbers" thread.

I am NOT doing "Just Cams".
I have a set of Rush 4" "Big Louie" slip-on's already. I am having the cat cut out of the stock head pipes. I am installing a high flow Air Breather (undecided on what one just yet.
Then finally cams and a tune. I have been thru the dyno sheets plenty. With the mods I am planning, I should be able to reproduce very close dyno #'s vs any other bike with the same mods.

I already have been looking hard at the SE-255 cams but asking to see if there may be something out there I am missing or haven't seen yet. With all the different cams available and the endless combinations of aftermarket pipes, headers, ect, it is hard to digest it all and feel confident these are the cams for me.

I am not sure where you got the idea that I am only wanting to toss a set of cams in there and think I can get #'s like I want. My original post clearly says I am adding all the other needed mods.
the only thing not mentioned in my first post is that I already have a set of mufflers on the bike.

Look into the 254E cams, good down low, but don't run out of steam as fast as the 255's.

I have a 2008 Ultra Classic that has the SE 103 stage 2 kit in it. This came with the SE255 cams. On the dyno it got around 100tq but only around 85hp. The torque tends to rise rapidly in the low rpms but fall off just as quick in the higher rpms >4000.

Like you I have been reading a lot of threads and doing a lot of research. It is really confusing. I have been calling a lot of vendors to discuss things as well.

I have narrowed my cam selection to Woods TW-555 or the Feuling Reaper 574. The Red shift 575 was another candidate.

Hope that helps.

So you've got a Stage 1 with cams! Most everybody in the World that installs cams has already done the Stage 1 as well. As I said, ya, you can go with the 255's for a great low end, but without headwork or a compression bump, you're never going to hit 95-100 HP as you stated that you want. With ONLY CAMS and a Stage 1 You're NOT going to have both stump-pulling down low and big peak numbers as well.

I think you missed his point. you are not going to get stump pulling torq and high hp or at least not without doing high end heads and much more cubic inches and lots of $$$.
