Default D&d billet cat and thundermax

looking at installing exhaust and tunner on my 2018 streetglide. Been looking at d&d billet cat with thundermax. Was wondering if anyone one had experience with either?

No but I watched a video of someone doing that. My goal one day is to put that setup on my 18 ultra, just for now I'd like to keep the warranty or at least get a little closer to the expiration date. Here's a pic of the video, on a cellphone so I just screenshotted it. Just type the video title in utube and you should find it.

D&D makes a good exhaust, you could not give me a thundermax there support sucks my son owned two bikes with that ecm and it was tricky to tune. he had both bikes at a couple different tuners and it seem to act up after they retune the bike. installed the factory ecm and installed a power vision no more problems.

Good to know, seems like just about everybody uses power vision with no issues.

I have done 6 builds using PV's all tuned fine with no issues plus they have a great support team that can help you with any issues.

I currently run a thundermax ecu and have no issues with it.

I also have a power vision that never really ran the bike right. I talked to Fuelmoto and they where right in the diagnosis. I had O2 sensors that where reversed.

The above issue was found when I swapped the header and ecu. I was thinking of getting the protune but the thundermax secondhand was cheaper.

Did you have any issues with the thundermax meshing with the other electronics on your bike? Like the infotainment ?

I have a 13 but no issues.

I just set what items where stock and what wasn't. Then loaded the map and ran thru two autotunes.

It has ran great. Looking forward to do some longer runs here since my bike is finally registered after a move
