Ordered a PC-V today

Called and talked to Brian at FuelMoto, gonna map it for my '07 Ultra with the Hooker Tuned flow mufflers and SE air cleaner. Went with the PC-V so I have the option to add auto tune in the future. Also having them send me plugs so I can remove the stock O2 sensors and plug the openings.Just thought it will give it a cleaner look removing them. Now I await in great anticipation for it's arrival........

I'll post up my thoughts on the performance after install.

Congrats on your PC-V. If my bike's mufflers had 02 bungs, I would have ordered the AutoTune.

I had an 08 SG and traded for an 09. I took the PC V off the 08 and trying to decide if i can or want to put it on the new one. Not real sure about the performance yet. I need to see some numbers!!

Could you tell a noticable difference with the PC-V on your '08 model ? What mods did you have done to it?

If you go with their power package (SEAC, Jackpots, PCV) they claim you get +14hp and +14tq. I haven't done any dyno testing on mine after the packages but there is NOTICABLY more power from both of them after putting on the packages.

Just ordered myself a pcv also today....I have a 08 streetglide with stage1 filter and vance and hines monster ovals. Can't wait to see if there's any performance improvement and loss of heat from exhaust.

Ok guys, my PC-V came today, easy 20 min install, instructions did not say but I put Dielectric grease on all the connections just to help fight off Mr. Moisture. Fired the bike up and could tell an immediate difference in just the way it idles, sounds even more like a Harley, remindes me of my carbed '96 FLHTC. I let her warm up and took her for a spin. Deffinate notice in the smoothness of power through out the throttle. The temp outside was about 80 degrees and I could tell that the crossover pipe / rear cylinder area was not as hot. It's for sure a fatter AFR setup than stock, in fact on decl I could smell a fatter exhaust gas mixture.
I Love It!!!! Best $300.00 I have spent on the bike. I did buy the O2 sensor port plugs from Jamie and after I ride it a few hundered miles and shake everything down, I'm going to pull my sensors and plug the bungs. I had my Hooker tuned flows both set for full torque on the baffles to start with. Had just a little (not every time) decel pop. I opened the right side muffler up to about 3/4 full open on the horsepower side and it has a more noticable decel pop occasionally. Going to run with this for the time being. I think the FuelMoto map is darn near dead on. If I do hook it to the computer and try to tune out the Decel pop, where would I make the adjustment at ???

One thing I did forget about and will check, is if I have a small exhaust leak causing the decel pop.
