need some advice
looking at upgrading my exhaust and air cleaner. After reading many posts, it seems I need to have the bike tuned. I like the option of being able to tune to my specific needs. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each tuner. The ones I am most thinking about is the Dynajet Power Vision with Auto Tuner, Thundermax auto tune system, and the TTS Master Tune. I really want something that is almost automatic with as little as possible fuss to get installed and set up, but that I can still adjust as I may need or want. Thanks for your advice

There is no one right answer, it depends what you want to do with the tuning tool. There are several threads here with the pluses and minuses.
The TTS kit is by far the most popular with back yard mechanics as well as many pros that tune for closed loop. The tool is simple to use for the novice but is also full featured, offering a wide variety of adjustments with fine resolution (relative to others), if you want to get deeply involved with precise tuning. Not many constraints for the DIYer on the street with stock to moderately modified bikes, but you do need to ride with a laptop. It includes a bunch of useful diagnostic tools (unlike the eye candy offered by some others) and actually useful data logging capability not offered with most other systems. mastertune.net has the manuals available for download if you want to get an idea of what you get. You can spend a lot more money for less street capability, IMHO.

I'm pretty sure the PC Vision doesn't have autotune capabilities. I know it says you can hook up the autontune module from the PC5, but I believe that it is only for data collecting, the user would still have to manually make the adjustments. You can go with the PC5 with the autotune module, then it would self tune after you got it installed and all the settings configured correctly.
