No it does not have auto tune. It is just an interface to connect to the ECM, the the other side connects to your laptop (or the tuners computer) and you tune the bike, and remove the interface. Then place the interface back in the box, and in the saddlebag. It reprograms the ECM.

As a beginner TTS user, I really like it. As mentioned user operation and skill is just as important. For the newby this product really requires a lot of reading to understand what you are doing and why. Tuning with vtune is fairly straight forward. The only real challenge I have is the huge number of runs and all the trial and error to get a spark timing map just right.

Whether you are using a Power Commander or TTS, my opinion is there is no substitute to a dyno to get optimal performance.

To the OP- did they do a dyno tune, or did they do some V tune session(s)?

Hey North Star. It was a full-on Dyno tune using the TTS to re-program/program the ECM.

Ah, nice- great numbers btw. I bet the seat of the pants dyno approves as well.

If I switch exhaust (2 into 1), I wanted to get a dyno tune, but there is only 1 guy on TTS's website who is an authorized tuner around here, but apparently he's a small operation and doesn't have a dyno. So, I figure I'll get him to find and download a new map and run some V tune runs, and that should be good enough.

If I don't get the new exhaust, I don't think I'll bother with the V tune- the map I put on that I got from Fullsac makes it run great, with decent numbers.

I believe he's referring to 'Task Performance' He's a small performance shop & a dealer for TTS, but does not have a dyno.

To North Star, there is Dynotunes in Oakville.

2 different strategies at 2 different price points I have a power vision with Fm tune for tw-555 cams and I have a tts tuner. Right now the Fm tune on the power vision ROCKS!

Not to start a "my tuners" better than yours debate. With the release of the new MT8 calibrations from TTS you now have tools and capabilities that no one else has, or will be able to duplicate.
