Quick And Easy Power-Up | Fuel Moto Pipes and Air Cleaner Install

10. When designing this head pipe Fuel Moto tried different steps and collectors and found that a true merge collector and a non-stepped primary made the best power overall. According to Fuel Moto its exclusive Jackpot Tandem Flow, large-diameter collectors allow for maximum flow and convergence through the right-side muffler path for maximum performance. Jamie said he chose stainless steel because of its excellent corrosion resistance and heat-dissipation characteristics. The left-side pipe crosses under the chassis like the stock head pipe.

11. With the head pipe loosely mounted, Jim then slipped the Jackpot mufflers onto the head pipe.

12. With the head pipe, mufflers, and stock heat shields installed and tightened up, Jim then began installing the chrome air cleaner backing plate.

13. After the backing plate was installed Jim secured the Fuel Moto air filter element.

14. Next, he bolted on the Fuel Moto billet cover with milled clover design.

15. Jim then removed the left side cover and plugged the Power Vision into the bike’s diagnostic port and turned the Power Vision on.

16. As you can see, the display has an easy-to-read and easy-to-use menu screen with options such as Program Vehicle, Datalog, Vehicle Tools, Settings, Device Info, and Dealer Info.

17. Jim then hit the Program Vehicle button. Aside from the hundreds of preconfigured maps that you can install, the Power Vision can hold six custom maps. Fuel Moto has worked extensively with Dynojet as a technical partner on the development of the Power Vision, so it truly does have in-depth knowledge of the ins and outs of the new unit. Jamie has spent hours on the dyno developing and fine-tuning maps not only for his parts but also for various other part combinations to get the best results.

18. Once Jim found the preconfigured Fuel Moto map he wanted for this setup he clicked on the flash button and the Power Vision quickly flashed the ECM with the new map. One of the cool things about the Power Vision is that it will save your original ECM settings so that if you ever want or need to go back to stock, you can do so.

20. Here’s a rear shot of the Jackpot mufflers. Jason really liked the sound the mufflers put out, the bike had the deep rumble that a Harley should have but wasn’t so loud it rattled his eardrums at speed.

21. Fuel Moto owner and dyno tune specialist Jamie Long. With the stock heat shields covering the stainless exhaust and the simple slash-cut mufflers people would be pretty unsuspecting that this bike makes nearly 100 lb-ft of torque—the perfect sleeper bike.

19. Even though the bike didn’t need to be dyno tuned since it had one of Fuel Moto’s preconfigured maps loaded into it, Jamie rolled the bike into the dyno room to put the newly installed parts to the test anyway. After properly allowing the bike to warm up Jamie made three passes on the dyno and the results spoke for themselves. With a simple head pipe, air cleaner, and muffler swap the 96ci bike went from 65.34hp and 78.16 lb-ft of torque to 80.28hp and 94.41 lb-ft of torque. That’s nearly a 23 percent gain in horsepower and 21 percent gain in torque for about $1,400 in parts. And as you can see in dyno graph, the bike makes nice smooth power with a broad torque range above 90 lb-ft from 3,000 to 4,500 rpm.
