I ran the PCV on my Street Glide while it was stage one. After the engine build i changed to TTS. I think the PCV is fine for a stage one but once you move beyond that you need a better tuner. Hindsight, i should have bought the TTS in the first place cause it would have saved me money in the long run. So, if you have thoughts of changes down the road don't settle for the PC.
On a side note, don't let the dyno intimidate you. These bikes are built to withstand the dyno experience. Some people tend to baby these bikes with kid gloves like it's going to explode if it approaches red line. I've got news for you, these bikes can take a lot of stress without any harm.
I agree that their tough but that is a lot of abuse, I have seen many dyno tunes that did not end well. These are the ones you never hear about because the failure is always blamed on the builder but from my experience this is not the case. I would rather tune by using the new technology that is available to us now via the SESPT or TTS with this you can record what the engine is doing and make adjustments to get better performance.
I have a buddy that got his bike dyno tuned and I pull him every time we ride together, he also has a nasty decel pop. I am just not sold on the dyno, I have used them many times they are good for extremely modified engines that you plan to rebuild and take to the drag or street race for cash but for daily drivers with a few parts on em, IMO you wont need all that.
OK, you don't want to dyno this bike, you want something that is basically tunes without issue. Tell Jamie you want the RevPerf EMS. He's a dealer for it now and I think that you will be delighted with it. I'm running it and it's a good unit.
I have the PCV and auto tune from Fuel Moto for two years now. No problems and I love how it performs on my 09 Ultra. One other thing is Fuelmoto has become more to me than just someome I buy a part from. I have never met the people at Fuelmoto but if they carry the item I want they will get my business. Over the past two years I consider them very good friends and I would love to buy them a beer!!
on my 07 ,wich was very lean,stumble heat and ping were all issuies,pcv with fuelmoto map took care of all of it,ping gone, heat reduced more than ant other single mod, never relized how bad the stumble and surging was till i got the pcv. left the 02 sensors in place,makes it easier to switch back to stock for trouble shooting,if u have a problem remove the pcv b4 it goes to the dealer it will be the first thing they blame any issuie on.
FM is top notch, been running a PCV on my 08 for 2 years. Bought the AT but sold it recently.....just didn't feel I needed it.
Now my wife's 07 has no tuner and it may get the PCV (remapped by Jamie for her set-up) and mine to the RP EMS. I really like what I read the feedback so far. Both Jamie at FM and Frank at Drago's are with it. No dyno here.

I dont know them either but I agree that Keith and Jamie are very good at what they do and always offer the best customer service that I have seen anywhere in this country. If I weren't a mechanic and a tuner I would be inclined to listen to everything they recommend, they are fair and honest.
Hate to be a thread pirate but someone please explain what SESPT or TTS tuners are. I assume they are acronyms. I'm trying to do research on tuners and as you can see I'm just a pup. Thanks!
