I will have my PC 5 tomorrow, no auto tune, but I can add the auto tune feature anytime I want.

Just set it up and do some v-tune runs and your set.

I have run them all DTT, PC3 and the Thundermax and the thing that scares me with the Thundermax is that it still loses sync with the speedo and all the electronics to the speedo and idiot lights die until you turn the ignition off and on.

Now it only happens now and again and they have had 4 to 5 firmware upgrades and still can't fix it and I wonder what is going to happen if the same bug exists with the 08/09 TBW touring bikes !?!?!?

You could be minding your own business on the freeway doing 85 and the speedo dies and the idiot lights come on and BANG your throttle stops working.

Your going to have a hard time suing Zippers if your dead!

Over 2 years and they still can't get that bug worked out and now they want to have a crack at TBW...................Not me
Had something similar to this happen to me yesterday, riding back country roads with
a couple friends, we pulled over for a sec and I look down and see my engine, battery,
and security light all on, bike was running fine, turned it off and back on and everything
was back to normal for the rest of the ride, I was thinking the Tmax might be what
caused it, I don't like the sound of this problem, now I got to make a decision whether
to keep the Tmax.

I had the Thundermax on my 07, and was not that impressed. It started performing badly (poor mileage and backfires) about 9 months after the install. Tech Support was not that great, and I always felt they were being condensending to me. At first they blamed it on a crimped wire on one of the sensors, so I had to buy a new one for $100. Well, that didn't fix it, so they told me I would have to send it in for repair which would take at least a week.

Ended up trading for an 09, and bought the PCV. Based on the feedback from other members, I'm very confident that FuelMoto will assist me if I have a problem. Install was a piece of cake. The bike runs great, and I get very close to 40MPG on average. I'm very satisfied. I didn't get the Auto Tune because Jaime said I really didn't need it since all I did was a Stage 1. But I still have the option of adding it in the future if I decide I want to make changes to my build.

I love my T-Max for my '07. Seems like Zippers has been promising the new model for '08and '09 owners will be available "next week" for about 1 1/2 years though. If I wanted something now, I wouldn't wait based on that promise.
