Get the Auto-tune for the PCV so you can be done with fuel management for any future mods. I am running a canned map for now but plan to add the auto-tune later on.

My vote is another map and move on. It is only my opinion that dyno tunes are somewhat wasted on Stg.1 mods.

.... only my opinion. Lot's of folk have done it, and are very happy.

+1 I agree. For $50.00 more than you show for a dyno tune you can add an auto tune. I'm leaning that way myself.

I wouldn't say its a waste. Every map that I've tried for the pipes that I've had have either been WAY to rich, or just backfire a LOOOT. I paid $400 for my dyno tune and my ride is dialed in perfectly! No popping, decent gas mileage, and the spark plugs look spot on. I'd defintely say get the auto tune feature. I wish I could add the auto tune to my power commander, but ya know, I have a PCIII, not a V.

I'm kinda screwed over here right now.My quiet baffle doesn't backfire or pop but just doesn't have the tone,my loud baffle runs kik ***! extra torque and power but will decel pop on me , and some loud ones too! So far I have only used canned maps and I've been on the phone with Jamie and Keith at fuel moto and have tried everything to kill the popping extra gas, advanced timinng, the works man nothing doing,..
........I didn't order the auto tune when Jamie told me that the autotune would not tune out the decel popping............And it seems alot of the freer flowing pipes will pop now and then no matter how much you tune 'em

Lucky for me as long as I don't ride too agressively there's only the occasional pop!

I have No popping at all, before I put in the BCT QQ baffles I had a little but now it is Nil, even coming off of the throttle from the higher RPM's, and the BCT's will still scream when you want them to.
