I threw this up in the Dyna section because I didn't know this area existed.
Just looking for an idea what to expect, currently the bike runs an HD Stage 1 flash. After the new pipes were installed I took her for a quick spin and I truly felt the difference over the Samsons, perhaps because the front tube (Samson) was crushed a bit which is why I went with new pipes (V&H BS Staggered). Fast forward to Sunday, I installed the Ness Big Sucker and everything was incredible, not like I noticed any seat of the pants punch, but it was just smooth and very responsive
This week I'll be installing the Dynojet PC V with a map for the new pipes and big sucker kit. I don't believe I'll experience any wheel popping power but I'm curious what to expect. I'm not building a hot rod bike, I just want her run as smooth, efficient and get the most out of my upgrades and Stage 1 set-up.. Thanks in advance.
Did you tell FM that your bike already has a stage I download in it? If not they'll probably being pre-installing a stage I MAP in the PC-V which will have you running to rich. Other than that what to expect depends on how close the MAP is to your bike. Might be close, might not.
Opted to return the Power Commander, bike is running excellent with the HD Stage 1, no decel pop, power band is incredibly smooth throughout. I don't want to mess with a good thing.
