Frequently Asked Questions

Will this intake require a tuner or ECM map?

Air intake changes typically require a fuel-air map adjustment for optimal performance. Consult your tuner or dyno specialist.

Is the air filter element washable and reusable?

Yes — the high-capacity filter element is washable. Clean and re-oil as needed rather than replacing.

Does this fit my 2017+ Harley with Milwaukee-Eight engine?

No — this part is designed for 2008-2016 models. Milwaukee-Eight bikes (2017+) require a different intake model.

What's the difference between the black and chrome versions?

Both use identical internal components and performance. Finish choice is cosmetic — black for stealth, chrome for show.

Can I install this myself, or do I need a shop?

Installation is straightforward for riders with basic hand tools and mechanical skill. Professional installation is recommended if you lack experience.
