Default Screaming Eagle or Power Commander?

I just picked up a 2010 CVO S/G with a 110. It has a Screaming Eagle program downloaded. My old bike was a 09 S/G with a 96 in motor. With a Power Commander. My old bike ran much cooler. Im wondering if that has to do with the Power Commander or the 96 in compared to the 110? This 110 feels like a furnace when im stopped at a light.

Someone told me that the power Commander advances the timing and the Screaming Eagle only adds fuel. Im thinking of trying the power commander on the new bike...

Im gonna go with both. 96 is a smaller engine and a pc will tune better then a government controlled tune.

Go Target Tune from FuelMotoUSA and fire your tuner to save some of the money. Jamie will dial you right in.

The Screaming Eagle Pro Super Tuner, if that is what you have, is far and away superior to a power commander in what it can do in the hands of a competent tuner.

How do you know it has a S/E download ...if it did .should the tuner have come with the bike ?? once it's married to the ECM ...it should stay w/ the bike ..
and if it dose ...that is why its running so hot ...at a 14.6 AFR all the way out to maybe 60% throttle and out to maybe 4000 rpm !!!
good luck tuning the PC-V running over a S/E map ...unless you flash it back to stock or maybe a stage one ...no PC-V map will do much good .. as they are all made to run over a stock ECM !!! stock timing tables , stock AFR's ..etc..
There's alot to learn with either one ...and even more when using both !!!
