OK IVE READ OTHER THREADS ABOUT high flow FILTERS AND REMAPPING THE ECU ( FACTORY OR AFTERMARKET). ALSO LOOKED ON OTHER WEBSITES AND THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF CONFUSION ABOUT THE NEED TO REMAP OR ADD A FUELPAK ETC.  iVE ALREADY GOT SOME S&S PIPES ON THE 07 883C AND AND NOW LOOKING TOWARDS THE AIRFILTER.  DO I OR DONT I NEED TO GET THE ECU ADJ? AND HOW MUCH DOES THE ACTUAL SCREAMING EAGLE FILTER COST ?  IVE READ SOME SCARY POSTS ABOUT THE COST OF REMAPPING THE ECU.

 

 

Dugga,

My experience was that when you have both pipes and high flow air filter you need a fuel manager.  When I first got my bike I initially got Screamin Eagle pipes, there was no need for a fuel manager but when I put the SE Air Filter on the bike didn't run good.  I took the air filter off until I could get a V&H fuelpak.  When I installed the air filter with the appropriate fuelpak settings the bike ran great.  So if you ask me you definately need a fuel manager if you go both high flow pipes and air filter.

I bought the Screamin Eagle direct from the US and I think the cost was around $200 AUD.

THANKS FOR THE INPUT KINGCHOPS. I MIGHT HAVE TO GO WITH THE FUELPAK OPTION. JUST A QUICK NOTE
WHAT IS THE SE AIR FILTER LIKE TO FIT. IM FAIRLY MECHANICAL MINDED BUT DONT HAVE AN ENGINE BACKGROUND.

The install is fairly easy, check out my photo guide here:

07 883 c slip on mufflers and air cleaner kit was no problem on mine and also my brothers without fu@$ing around with any of the fuel system.
Take my advice and dont use a fuel tuner, they dont modify the air fuel ratio they only add or decrease the amount of fuel going into your cylinders,
Just my 2 bobs worth, but hey if you want to throw $500 away go for it, cheers Bretho
