VANCE & HINES CTR PERFORMANCE KIT
P112
CERAMIC THERMAL
REDUCTION—CTR
The CTR Kit is claimed to re-
duce the outgoing heat off the
exhaust headers by as much
as 100°F, while allowing for a
huge jump in performance with
better emissions than standard
when coupled with the Vance &
Hines FPC fueling device and Air
Intake with the catalytic convert-
ers now placed in the headers,
rather than the mid-pipe like
standard.
"The FPC stick is pre-pro-
grammed with the map for the
Vance & Hines slip-ons you run
with the kit," says Vance & Hines
VP of Sales and Marketing, John
Potts. "We do that because we
have nine different kit combina-
tions for the Touring Harley's in
the air cooled and twin cooled
range. On top of that, there
are multiple different software
levels within the ECM for both
air-cooled and twin-cooled. The
little stick with blinking lights
doesn't look like it's doing much,
(Top) The V&H system has the
catalytic converter inside the
headers, rather than the mid-pipe,
making for an exceptionally light
design. (Above) The FPC plug-in is
like having a Power Commander
the size of your middle finger.
