Default **Best Tuner 4 Performance**
My title pretty much says it all, A brother of mine told me the Harley Race Tuner is pretty much the best. But I wanna get some feedback from people who have actually used different ones.

I had a PCV on my Street Bob, and it worked flawlessly. I now have a SERT from Harley on my Crossbones, and it works flawlessly. I have a feeling this one could be a ping-pong match.

I've got the PCIII and it works great - nothing else to compare it to but it did everything it was advertised to.

Got the PCIII and it's fine. If doing it again I would look at the TTS with autotune so you can eliminate the need for dynos. The others can be set up with canned maps, but they require a dyno to dial them in.

TTS Mastertune.. Does everything a SERT does and then some.. V-tune eliminates the need for a dyno run as well

I just dropped my bike off at The Cycledoctor in Costa Mesa, CA and decided to bite the bullet and shell out the coin for the TTS Mastertune and dyno tune. The owner, Geoff Gaites, is supposed to be one of the top guys in Southern Calfornia when it comes to using a dyno to build a custom map for your harley. The whole process definitely isn't cheap:

TTS Mastertune = $425
Modifying my exhaust for his wide band oxygen sensors = $200
4 hours of Dyno time to build custom map = $400

I'll be picking the bike up sometime next week and I will definitely post the results and first ride impression.

You sure about this? The TTS works with the O2 sensors on the bike.

And as Rail said, V-Tune eliminates the need for a Dyno run.

Get the TTS, check it out, you can download their manual in .pdf format from their website.

Here is the link: http://www.MASTERTUNE.NET/files/Tuni...Guide-v122.pdf

Also Fuel Moto has a good price for them!
