Default Fuelpak programming ?

Ok, I'm getting ready to go hook up my fuelpak that I purchased for Christmas. Here's what I got..
2008 Nightster
Rush Slip on Exhaust
Stage 1 A/C
Stage 1 ECM Dowload
Stock Motor

When I went to the V&H website and punched in all of that info, it gave me a value reference# of FP-2216

Does that mean that the mode# that I punch in is 22 and the value display is 16? If not, I'm lost. Since I bought the fuelpak on craigslist used, I haven't got the directions that I'm needing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again, and HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL..

So what you are saying is, I have to input each individual value for each individual mode 1-18 and also 23-33? If so, I think I understand now.

Thanks again..

You got it, good luck with it. I think the most difficult part is physically mounting it on the bike.

Yes, mounting on the bike was a pain. Just set all the codes and you are good to go.

Geez, that sucked. Programming was very easy. Installing was very strenuous. I had a couple of cabinets fall on me on Monday and my back has been very sore since. After sitting for a few days, I had to go out to the garage and try to install this thing. Not something I would advise with a sore lower back. After it was all said and done, just as I was putting the cover on and reading the directions again to make sure I didn't miss anything, I noticed that I put the connector backwards, so, the digital readout needed a little more length. The cover still closed but, man was it tight. I might decide to take it apart again sometime, but, it will have to be when I'm without back pain. Next project.. Relocating speedometer, changing bars, grips, relocating front turns.

but once you get it to work, its a great upgrade!
before, my bike would stall sometimes from the factory (too lean) setting.
now i have full power all the time-
not that i really care, but my gas mileage did take a beating !!

does anybody have any pics of their fuelpak installed? is it less bulky and have less connections than pcIII? i'm interested in some fuel managment, but as everyone knows its already tight under the seat and its even tighter since i've moved all my taillight wiring to under the seat too. and with plans to relocate the ecm to by the battery i'm really going to be short on space so i'm just looking for something as small as possible.

Fuel Mileage? The low fuel light comes on before 100 miles anyway. I don't know what kind of fuel mileage I got, or, will get. But, I am really ready to get rid of the lean condition I had previously. My bike would cough on take off occasionally, it would run like crap when cruising around town about 20-30, and when you would barely start slowing down it would start popping. If it cures this, it will be money well spent.
