i have an 07 and had it done at the dealer for FREE. it has helped with the heat. but when you are sitting at a stop light and it kicks in, it sounds like its missing on one cylinder. kinda embarrassing to have other hear that. sounds like its outa tune. but worth it though

I have it on my 2007 RKC by way of my SERT CD. I can turn it on/off through the laptop connection.

It does sound/feel different when running on one cylinder. I even had a guy in the car next to me do a double take when it swicthed to one cylinder.

The EITMS feature can be enabled and disabled from within the SERT software as shown in the attached photo.

You would have had purchased the SERT (Screamin Eagle Race Tuner) to be able to use the software. Did you purchase one?
