I am just curious a friend of mine has EFI on his TC. I have a carbie on my twin cam. His is a 00 mine a 02 when you listen to both his seem to run very smoth at idle. And mine at idle sounds like it has a much more agressive cam profile ,longer duration. Does any one know if both EFI and carb motors run the same cams ?
By the way mine can out run his so far 3 out of three trys. Twice he hit the limiter in first and I had a hand full of second.
I do have VH. exaust with a Dyna jet kit and SE air cleaner, He said his needed to go back to the dealer it wasn't running right ,you guys and girls know that story.

I wasn't sure with todays technology anythings possible. Thought it might help Roadhwg to throw a question in to help get some more information on the difference between the two.
Here"s another one on a EFI motor if you change the cams will the control module counter act the aditional fuel & air being added to the motor ? Or can you change the computer or recalibrate the map sensor the same way as an automotive performance module ? Just wonderin I'm stayin with my old school carb.
Like Hippo said the dealers seem to like the customers to be dependent on them and I'm just glad they still build carb engines.

Welcome Shag !


In my personal opinion it looks to me like the area that restricts performance the most is the head. I have the same bike myself and have been checking out the design of the motor it looks like the heads is the the area I would start with. I do not have much experence with HD motors but have been wrenching on race engines for many years.
I would go with some one who knows a proven combination of performance parts, you can often improve performance and sacrafice reliabilty and rideabilty high performance engines are very high strung and not very sutable for a touring bike. But opening up them heads a litte or replacing could only help.

My bike has never been back to the dealer since it rolled out the door new.
I intend on doing most maitnance myself,as far as performance upgrades I have a little shop in my neighborhood that I take my bike to and was wondering if Hippo might be familiar with Bill'The Hammer"Bishop they seem to do pretty good with EFI and do there own heads If any one in lower east MI. is looking a good performance shop you can look in to there website WWW.Hawgquarters.com Hmm.now I have to wonder why they spell it that way? Ohh that's another thread. I'll check in to that. By the way I'm am in no way trying to plug an ad for them I just thought someone in my area might want to check them out.
