I think the general consensus is going to be if you modify the intake & exhaust, you'll want to remap/tune

Since the exhaust is causing popping now, then remapping it before the intake AC won't hurt?

Thx

The FP3 has a map for each combination of stock exhaust, stock intake, upgrade exhaust and intake.

After a map is downloaded the FP3 has a feature for reducing decel pop, go to map edit under air/fuel and select the level of popping that you have and flash the change, 3 levels to choose from. It works great!

VH customer support is pretty amazing. Just ask them directly; it won't cost you any extra to get their take on the problem.

Don't think I have a problem.
Just wondering if I can use the FP3 with the slip-ons now,
then again later with the new AC.
Guessing the FP3 can be used multiple times on same bike.

Thx

You can download up to 6 maps, and delete maps if needed but you need a high flow a/c, the map choices are with high flow.
