That's the thing about the TTS and T-Max (not sure what others) ... they're total engine control modules that can reset the speedo to work right if you change a sprocket or wheel size for example ...

Also, they are programmed to adjust timing--a huge big deal for fine tuning the motor's performance ... (seems to me it would obviate the necessity of a 4 degree gear, that some have added) ... both front and rear AFRs can be adjusted separately ... ad nauseum ....

A lot of good stuff ....

I really like the improvement to the looks of your Fat Bot the wheels and pipe contribute (IMO) ... a very nice lookin' bike ... and now you've upped the performance commensurately ... sweet ....

p.s. there's a thread 'post your dyno sheet' or something to that effect ... if you have a scanner or photo of it, you should post it there ....
Thanks Chop,

When I left I spaced didnt get my print out, I will get it soon. I have to ride it a little more but I would have to say its a better running bike not more HP.

Yes, I would recommend them, they seem to really know there stuff, clean organized shop, no clunkers laying around and friendly. I'm not disapointed in my results and the bike runs perfect, just thought TTS with the tuning would get me a little more power than with the PCV did.

I think the beauty of the TTS/Tmax management systems is that you, the rider, can tune your bike. You save the money of having to go to a tuner.

Comparing the stage 1 download to the TTS is like apples and oranges, Bikepusher. The stage 1 download is just as much a canned map than one you would download from the powercommander website. The TTS/Tmax would create a map for your bike.

I'm slowly beginning to understand those tuners and can say that when the time /money available to me I will probably purchase one or the other.

I currenyl have the pcIII running a canned map from the pc website. Bike runs ok but understanding I can do any mod and then go for a ride and self-tune it is becoming more appealing to me as the days go on.
