I just placed an order for a Superchips Vigilante EZ tuner. Since I am only doing stage 1 on my bike, plug and play from a long-time reputable manufacturer was the way to go for me. Plus after reading the reviews both on the forum, and on Amazon... I couldn't turn it down. PLUS if you order direct from Superchips, you can enter promo code HDFORUMS and get 50%OFF! I got mine for $162.00 shipped!
For that price, I'll definitely try it out, and having sold Superchips products in the past while working for a truck accessory store.. I have had good experiences with them. Take it for what it's worth, but if you are not going beyond stage 1, I have been told a lot of the more expensive tuners are a waste of money.
Question on the PV2. Does the unit arrive from Fuel Moto auto tune capable, or is that an add on you pay more for? Little fuzzy on this...
Your PV is capable of doing an AutoTune Basic or an AutoTune Pro..
If your bike has OEM 02 sensors (2006 & up I believe), you can run an AutoTune Basic, right out of the box. The PV just uses your OEM narrowband sensors. This will do a fine job of dialing in a good canned map and matching it to your VE tables.
If your bike doesn't have OEM sensors, you need to create a map from scratch, or tune a bike with extreme mods... you'll need to tune using wideband 02 sensors (same type used during a dynotune). To do that, you will need to add the auto tune pro kit to your PV2. It is a module that lets you add to, or swap out your OEM 02 sensors with wideband sensors. Then you do an AutoTune Pro.
Buy it from FuelMoto, they will send it with a good canned map, flash it to your ECM, do a couple of auto tunes to dial the map to your VE tables, and you'll be good to go!
Should you still have a problem, call fuelmoto, tell them the problem, send them your map, and it will come back all dialed in..
A big plus.... if you ever change your mods, you're a free map away from dialing them in...
A no brainer in my mind....
Good luck...
Love Fuel moto and Power vision. Made a big difference.

Well after all this I went with the PCV after talking with Travis and being satisfied on only really ever staying with stage 1 set up he concluded this would be a very good and cost effective option. I got it today installed it in about 30 minutes and off I went with immediate overall improvement and I am extremely happy. Fuel Moto is definitely the only place to do business, talk about customer service!
How does the screamin eagle tuner compare to the power vision? I already have the power vision I just wanted to know if I should've gone a different route.

You made the right decision. The PV is much more capable than the SEPST, has better software and support.
