And Welcome from Washington State!

 

 

I have been told. Apologies.

 

Welcome Gilly2405!

Please shoot me an email to FPPro@vanceandhines.com with the specifics of your build, and we'll get you a map for your 124" kit.

athanks Brian, i have sorted it now with fp. One of the ppeps on here said dont run an fp3 with a 124 ci is there any reason i shouldnt?

Cheers

 

Gilly2405,

The FP3 has the full capabilities of tuning a bike for a number of upgrades, but it's limited from both an accuracy and time perspective based on the narrow band sensors. You can only make small incremental changes with the AutoTune feature, and you would need a lot of sessions to get something like that dialed in. This is why we spent the past few years developing the Fuelpak Pro, which allows an FP3 to be tuned on the dyno utilizing wide band sensors. The dyno truly shines when it comes down to controlling vehicle wheel speed and engine speed, couple this with the use of wide band sensors and you can get a vastly more accurate tune in far less time.

I would suggest taking it to a tuner and just paying the money. How much was that new S&S engine?

Stock narrow bands do only have such a range. About 18%. The main plus with these types of sensors while being used by the ECM. They make changes now. If they see a lean condition they richen it up. On the other hand. Wide bands will read further away from stoich but they are only going to log that data. This data need to be used with the existing calibration and reflashed into the ECM to take affect. Does riding around for 15-20 minutes at a time with an untuned engine sound like a great idea until it is broke in?

VH doesn't have a 124 calibration and should not be made while street tuning a brand new engine that needs to be broken in.

 

Hrdtail78 is correct, running a tune that is too far off on an engine that hasn't been broken in would not be advisable. That being said, the friend of one of our Engineers is bringing in his 124" Softail build for me to map next week, and I'll be getting my hands on a 143" in the near future as well. This will allow me to tune it on the dyno with the Fuelpak Pro, and I'll be able to have the map stored on my personal Dealer Server as well as our Customer Service server. So the map that you need should be available by the end of next week.
