Default New Air Cleaner Advice

I need some help here guys.
I currently have a 2011 street glide with a stage 1 download, V & H ovals and a high flow HD air cleaner.

My question is if i purchase a new air cleaner like the one in the link , do i need to do any more to my bike as far as fuel management program or a new flash from HD or can I just install and ride with out worrying about damaging my motor?

Thanks guys here is the one i'm looking at purchasing.

I'm not necessarily going to buy it from J&P but just using their website and pic as a reference.

thanks again.

um, krapkyn often makes junk....or gee-gaws

the evo version hype charger, flowed only a little more than the stock housing...about 60% of the screaming eagle or ness hi flow air cleaners.

you should be able to bolt that on without any changes to your download.

"on steroids" yeah sure. "dyno and track proven" too- you can't go wrong.

The hyper charger does not flow as well as what you have now but you could just bolt it on with what you have.

thanks for the advice guys but basically what i am looking for is a bad *** looking air cleaner and i'm not sure what i can and cannot put on without spending the money for a fuel management system or whatever else HD says i need to do to not ruin my engine.

I have some time with mu injury and want to do some upgrades like the air cleaner but am unsure what ones i can go with out of the billion i see in magazines and on line. I want quality, a cool look and performance without redoing my whole engine.

thanks

I have the stage 1 A/C with a K&N air filter and a fancy plastic plate from moco. It get lots of air, probly more than it can take at a time anyway. If you use the foot ball over it, it traps a lot of heat from the engine when stopped at red lights and such.

Most high flow air cleaners flow very close to the same and with the tuner setup that you have it should not make a difference.
