Sounds like zepka harley in johnstown, kim is a great service manager (cute also),  Brian the tuner was trained by doc and i hear he's pretty good, Ill be seing him soon i hope

I wrestled with the same questions. I think most would agree that the stock header has to go... at minimum the cat has to be removed, the mufflers have to be at least 4" to fill the hole between the bag extensions and fender and IMHO you should use either the TTS master tune or the SEPST rather than a "piggy back" tuner.

I went with V-H true duals (I like appearance and sound better), Klockwerks Revolver cans (i like the angled billet end caps and tone better), SE Heavy Breather, and SEPST (my tuner was more comfortable and I like that)

Also recommend dyno tune rather than smart tune. A good dyno man(with experience using the tuner software) can maximize power and torque curves down in the RPM range, smooth it out, maximize the air fuel ratio and deal with any driveability issues unique to your bike and setup. Mine Dyno's at 92HP @ 4500RPM, 112TRQ with AFR flatlined around 13.2 to 1. Most of the torque kicks in at about 2300 rpm. The Engine temps went way down, throttle response way better, couldn't be happier.

If you are going to spend the money on exhaust and tuner... budget the additional $200 for the dyno time.

My bike was delivered to me yesterday and it now runs consistently fantastic.  I am very pleased with it.

Running V&H Power Duals with BUB Boom Cans no tuner runs great still lean and hot.

Adding TTS and Reaper Cams this coming week 

Looked into the TMax, Nice unit pricey especially with autotune. Did not buy it as I already have the 2010 power duals with 12mm bungs. Not interested in repurchasing the 09 pipes to use autotune.
That said TTS is the best option without autotune and more affordable.

Having used power commanders and V&H Fuel Paks while they will do the job. Not as precisely and they take up valuable space. Also add another point of failure. The Autotunes are a nice feature but IMO in the end only as good as the tech adjusting them as well.

Thundermax unit replaces the ECM does a great job and takes no added space. 

TTS is not only more affordable it is very popular with many shops supporting it and it uses the factory ECM to get it done.

All that said the only real contenders were the TMax, TTS and SEST,

In the end widespread acceptance and available support went with the TTS.

The SESG also already has the Screaming Eagle Performance Ventilator High Flow Air Cleaner so there is no functiona; need to change them

Installed Fueling 574 Reaper Cams, Fueling lifters and Screaming Eagle adjustable pushrods. Tuned it with the TTS Mastertune 
Had no Idea what was missing never ran so good and cooler now too!

Noticeably stronger off the line and pulling strong through 6K RPM
