Default I need a PC usb map worth something

I have a Power commander III usb for my 2008 FLTR Road Glide. I have hooker tuned flow slip on pipes with SE air cleaner and stock ECM. No motor Work. I currently have loaded the map from Power Commander website and to be honest it sucks! The stock ecm w/o PC ran much better. I would like any possible maps / advice that could help I'm trying not to spend 300+ at the dyno at this current time. I would rather spend it on one of the many late bills sitting on the counter:0 Thanks!

You're at the perfect point in time to ditch that power commander, nothing but problems with the two I've had to send back to dyno jet for replacements.
Try a cobra fueler, inexpensive, no dyno needed, reliable.

It takes a while to figure them out without dyno'ing your bike. Even if you spend the bucks to have it dyno'd there's no guarantee that you'll like how it runs. I took me 10 or 12 maps before I finally got it running right. I would run a map and it run real good down low but have shortfalls in the mid or high's. So, i copied the low end numbers into a zero map. Ran a few other maps and found one that ran good in the mids. Copied those numbers. Did the same for hard running. After a while I peiced together a super running map. No spits, sputters, farts, or decel popping, and pulls super hard. It just takes alot of time to figure things out. Fortunatley, I have way too much time on my hands to dick around with stuff like this.

BTW, I've had mine since 2004 and never had a problem with it.
