Default PCV vs Power vision

hey guys I called a place to get my bike in to get Dyno tuned and they said they don't do that with bikes that have power vision. I guess it takes a lot longer to tune. This is a well respected place been around for a long time I also have heard that before. I am thinking of selling or trading my power vision with auto tune pro for a PCV so I can get it running right. I would like to some input and thoughts on this Thanks
Mike

A step backwards; find another tuner.

Yes, if they don't know what they're doing.

Don't know what they're doing.

I agree with all the above. The PV is a much better tuner. Find someone that will work with it.

A good power commander tune will beat a mediocre power vision tune.

The PC-V is a great piggy back tuner, the power vision remaps the ECM, both are good tuners. Find a better tuner that works with the power vision.

Power Vision is the way to go!!
Question... Have PV with the auto tune module and wide band sensors on my Sportster, got it Dynoed since I have a little more than a stage one (Impact 560 cams, Bassani Road Rage and SC full flow a.c. Getting 80 hp and 70 tq at 6400, (didn't want to take it higher) in anticipation of putting a full 1250 Hammer kit on this winter. Will run a few more auto tunes to smooth it out and I will be don with the Sportster till I put the full 1250 kit on. Have a duel licence on the power Vision so I can tune my Low Rider, set up the same way but with stock cams.
I want to pull the auto tune module and wide band sensors out of the Sporty and put them into the L/R and hook up the stock O2 Sensors to the Sportster. Or should I hook up the O2 sensors termination plugs th the Sportster and plug the Sensor ports.
TIA,
Jack

I haven't been able to find anyone who tunes with PV either. So I had mine dyno tuned with the pcv that I had bought years ago and imported the map to the PV software then flashed it to my ecm. It works. But from your post you only have a PV. Maybe you can call dynojet and they can tell you who tunes in your area with pv.
