Power Commander Question
I currently have the Harley Stage 1 fuel map.
If I install a Power Commander do I have to have the fuel map reset to the standard
factory map first like I would if I installed a DFO?
IF yes, does that require that I pay to have the Harley tech folks re-download the default map?

RE: Power Commander Question
Nope, you don't have to revert to the stock map to run the PC. In fact it's a good idea to tune your PC on top of the stage 1 download so if the PC ever takes a dump you don't run on the original(way to lean) settings.

RE: Power Commander Question
But I wont be able to use any of their canned maps from their website then right, since they are probably based on top of the stock
map or do they have maps that assume you already have the stage1?
...Never mind. I see maps that say Stage 1 ECM on them :-)

RE: Power Commander Question
So my next question is:
Anyone have any idea which V&H exhaust is closest match to the Screamin Eagle Pro 16 guage double barrel?
I see several with the SE II slip-ons, but none with the full SE Pro exhaust system

RE: Power Commander Question
I'm not considering changing my exhaust to V&H. I just had mine installed a week ago :-)
By "closest" I was talking about the backpressure etc. that
would be a consideration when selecting a PC map to use.
I want to know which V&H exhaust system is closest to mine in flow, back pressure, etc
since there are no maps for my specific exhaust on their site and I'll have to select one
thats a close match.

I have been told that the V&H Big Shots Staggered and the Screamin Eagle Pro 16 guage are the same but with different baffles, V&H makes them for HD.
