SERT - Now what?
 

Need some more advice:

Have a 05Ultra TC88 1450, added SE Touring Exhaust (65259-00 - not SEII's), and Stage 1 A/C, and SERT (4.52 version with MT6 files)

Loaded the 127LF004 Map - which seems the closest.

Seems okay - exhaust seemed to smoke more than with the stock pipe (until it gets warmed up). No poping, etc.

What should I do next? First, someone said that the #8 cal file (the 127LF004) still runs lean and that I would be better to use the #9 cal file (127LG004). Second, someone else said to use the 127LF004 and decrease the 14.5 cells to 14.1 and decrease the Decel Enrichment cells by 50%.

Also, maybe it's me, but seems to idle just a tad bit more rough than stock - what could cause the rougher idle? By rough, I mean it shakes more than before.


I know I should get it dyno'd, but what to get it close so to not cause any engine problems before I do that.


But, long story short, much better sound and power - this should be how HD sells these bikes (although the EPA would probably not approve) - those thinking about it - gofor it..



Thanks,


Bruce

Load a generic map that's close and take straight to a tuner and get dyno tuned. Why even play around with the different maps when your already planning on dyno tuning anyways?

IMO, I would not take it to a tuner. Get a good WEGO analyzer and tune it yourself. You already have the computer hook up. All you need is a sensor. Or, if you have the bux, get the Terry Components unit. Then it will always be spot on, no matter what the conditions.

How much does a dyno tune cost? I havn't done it, so I really don't know. The terry components add on can be had for about $500.
