Default PV vs Micro efi for stage 1 only

Hello,

I have a 2015 street glide that I only plan to do stage one on. Plenty of power for me so wont be doing cams or anything else in the future.
On my last two harleys I had the micro tuner and seemed to work well I guess. I say I guess because couldn't really tell a huge difference I just assumed it ran cooler and better.
On this bike I am deciding if the micro tuner will suite my needs or will the power vision at double the cost make that much of a difference.

The price for the micro is 200 and the PV is 400. Again I don't plan to go past stage 1. Thanks for any opinions or help you guys can provide

For stage-1 only the micro should be all you need...especially since you've been happy with it in the past.

That being said the PV is a great tuner with a lot of features. You can leave it mounted and use the gauges to monitor various functions and parameters.

I like the volt meter and trip meters with mpg functions. The digital tach and gear readouts can also be useful. There are many other functions available and it will read trouble codes.

If you aren't interested in any of these things you may as well stick with the micro.

I was in the Stage 1 camp as well. That didn't last long and now have a used $200 tuner collecting dust on the shelf.

Done over, I would have bought the PV the 1st time

It would depend on what AC and exhaust you are going to run. Contact Fuelmoto and see what they say about your set up.

Famous last words: “I don't plan to go past stage 1”.
Get a proper tuner now and never be disappointed.
