Guys, the FL-Xieds don't give me enough fuel for the Bassani with no Cats and DK suggested the Power Vision. Albeit a nice tuner, not piggyback, it's priced a bit high and has features I'll never use. Such as the touchscreen display. I've narrowed it down to either the PowerCommander V, which eliminates the need for the O2 sensors (which can be removed) and the FuelPak, which gets super reviews. Fuelpak is 269.00 and PowerCommander is 305.00.

What are your thoughts about which module to buy?

 

You can put a map into a PC-V.
I am not so sure you can with the V &H?
I do not think you can.

V&H gives you codes that you have to manually enter. I've already emailed them a request for mine and they've replied already with a series of codes that they say is a good setup for my bike. You email them exactly the mods you have and then make a series of codes depending on those mods.


This is what they emailed me:

 

The PowerCommander comes with circuitry that does away with the O2 sensors all together, so they can be removed from the exhaust manifold. I do like that feature because less visible wires yields a cleaner look.

 

I'd say reconsider the Power Vision, In the long run you may find you like those features,( I keep mine mounted on the handlebars and monitor ET,MPG,B+,etc.) And the ability to modify tune via Auto-tune andWinPV software. Very user friendly.

 

I bought a PCV for my 2014. I was not real happy with the downloaded map and did not want to drop $400+ on a dyno tune. I sold it and got a V&H FP3. I am more than happy with it. If you have the $$ to spend on a tuner AND a good dyno tune, I would do that. If your budget just covers a tuner, go with the FP3. You will be happy.

 

If you go with the PCV, I would not remove the o2 sensors from the pipes. If the PCV goes bad, if you still have the o2's in the pipes you can hook them up and ride home after unplugging the PCV. I had my PCV go bad and I had removed the o2 sensors, had to call a tow truck.

 

Where are you finding a Power Commander V for $305?

 

I thought the PCV "married" to the individual bike and wasn't transferable without paying another fee(?)

 

Dennis Kirk has it for 305.00
