Remember you usually get what you pay for!
I don't know why people are soo hyped up for the PC. I had one before and it worked great as does my current Fuelpak. As was said previously, if you don't plan on going bigger or past a stage one, it just makes sense to go with the Fuelpak if your also going with other V&H products such as pipes. As for failure rate, I have no idea what the stats are, but mine is perfect as are others in this thread.

As for getting what you pay for, I definately got what I paid for. No need to cough up any more $$$$ if there is no need.

I got my Fuelpak from the dealer so I paid a little more, with a giftcard of course.............

Agreed +1

I'm going no farther than stage 1 on this bike. (05 ultra V&H2into1 BP)

Fuel Pak has suited my needs. I got what I paid for.

plainly put the pc III is just a better product. it offers far more adjustbility, you can adjust ignition timing, raise the rev limiter, not to mention superior support from dynojet, its dealers and also on this forum. the fuelpak does work great for some guys but the main problem is that it cant make adjustments under about 40% throttle which is a fact. to each and ones own but for a little more money you get a much better tuner

Not trying to start an argument about which one is better here because like I said, I've had both and both are great. When I had the PC, I never messed with it after it was set so I don't see what the adjustability issue is. Once it's set, why keep tooling around with it? Also, as far as the Fuelpak goes, I would *** u ME that V&H has done their homework and once the numbers are plugged in, it's done! Just like the PC, but with the Fuelpak, there is no need for a computer. Now, if a person is going to be changing things like slip ons, head pipes and changing from V&H to Rhineharts, to whatever, then I can see the need for the PC. For simplicity, Fuelpak is the way to go. It's cheaper and easier to program. As far as not being able to make adjustments under 40% with the Fuelpak, is that what you HEARD? Whether it's true or not, it's not that serious to me. My bike is not a race bike and never will be and if that is your goal, then maybe the TTS system is better right? My goal was to make it breath better, sound better and get rid of some of the heat and that's all accomplished with the Fuelpak.

When it comes down to it, it's your coin, do what you want, but we are all basically after the same results.

Excellent arguments everyone but let's get back on point to the original question:

Who has the best price?

Thanks.
The best is where ever you can find a used one because someone is selling because they bought a PCIII or A SERT.

I'm thinking about going that route, too--- can you give an idea of the change in sound and throttle response? The newer bikes are VERY quiet stock IMHO--

I have one that I am going to pull in about a week. Going to a big bore and PC. It's on an 03 ultra. Works great. I have had this about 8 months. V&H true duals/ovals. Made A big difference in how bike runs. $150.00 shipped. Very simple connection. Takes 1/2 hour. Fits 02 - 06
