Default PCV w/auto tuner

Hello,
Has anyone put a PCV w/auto tuner in a '08 Rocker?

I haven't, but I have the PCV and I was thinking of putting the auto-tune in instead of getting a dyno. Same cost more or less, and I figure the auto-tune would be a more permanent solution as I seem to want to change my pipes and AC every few months. I could be completely mistaken on what the auto-tune even does though too!

So I am no help, but here is a thread bump in hopes someone has some info on the auto-tune (for both of us!)

i had the pcv with autotune and maybe it was just me, but i dont think it worked properly. i took a while for my bike to run ok and if i didnt shut the autotune off, it would keep adjusting and the bike would start to run awful. not to mention it takes up a ton of room under the seat. i switched to the thundermax with autotune, havent ran my bike yet but it fits way better and anyone that has one loves it.

I just bought the Thundermax w/auto tune for my 09 Fatboy. I am waiting impatiently for it to arrive.
Everything I have been reading is the thundermax is the way to go.

Thanks for the bump guys. 1 of the members on another thread directed me to Fuel Moto. I was so impressed by their support and services that I ended up purchasing the PC V. I initially wanted the complete package, but opted to wait until I made further mods before adding on the Auto Tune mod. Also, they said they would warranty the unit for 2 years eventhough it would go in to an unqualified '08 model rocker.

I spoke to Dynojet about installation and setup cost and they come up around $900. Soos, I'm gonna install it myself. I hope their support is as good as I hear. Oh yeah, they preload the unit (I believe) using their own canned maps to your specified equipment.
