Update
The tuner has been in for a while now with the map supplied from Jamie for several hundred miles. The main problem with the bike before was a hunting and surging effect mainly noticeable at about 30-40mph. That symptom has been reduced by at least 90% now, it's still there but not annoying and as far as I figure my mileage has decreased, (<49), because I got 193 miles before worrying the other day, so it must be doing something. Slight popping on decel still there. Thinking of doing what FXDFAN did and check throttle position. The bike vibrates like the dickens still, can't find the smooth sweet spot on the roads yet.

EFI Tuner
Hi,is this thread about the Fuel Moto EFI unit,or the Power commander,or are they the same thing,hope this isn't a dumb question,I know nothing about EFI tuning,i'm trying to learn all I can before deciding which tuner to go for.i had just about decided on a TTS,but i'm worried it's too advanced for a first attempt,& maybe something more plug & play would be better.

I installed a Power Commander III I purchased from Fuel Motor in my 07 StreetBob. Very simple to do if you have the smallest mechanical aptitude. The biggest problem with the install was the rerouting of cables to the Power Commander and trying to find the space for the unit under the seat. This was a PC III. The newer units are smaller if that's what you are getting and may be easier to find space for.
The change in performance was noticeable - this was with pipes and air cleaner change. My only complaint has been with the gas mileage I get since installation which is somewhere south of 35 MPG. I'm comparing this to my RoadKing which gets about 45 MPG with pipes, HD air box and stage one download and my Sporty which gets about 50 MPG with pipes and air filter upgrades.

I installed the PC-V and intake from Fuel Moto last year as I already had the V and H Big Shot Staggereds. Bike ran great right from the start and the best trick is my 07 Street Bob is my daily driver so the map they did kept my fuel mileage about the same.
Now I found out the PC V can hold a second map so I installed a simple $3.00 switch and had the guys at F M make a second map for me to boost the performance. Just installed a week ago so I'll know more in a couple days how much it helps but what little I've played it seems to work great!

Well I got my Power Commander V today from Fuel Moto and I insalled it and went for a short ride. I have an 05 WG with the screamin Eagle slip ons and SC air cleaner. It wasn't too bad to install the PCV. Just a bit tight under the seat. I could tell the difference after putting it in. You could just here it idle and I could tell it was tuned better.
Well I have some more riding to do so ..... Later
Thanks to the guys at Fuel Moto
I am a Happy customer
