Default ecm ?

If I do cams and a throttle body with a 95 inch kit I know I need to reprogram the ecm, do I need to put it on a dyno or can one of them fuel paks do the trick tuning the bike?

Call jamie at Fuel Moto and get a Power Vision instead of the PC V , many more options and no piggy back tuner on the bike

Depends on what you use. If it was my bike, I would use a SERT type device and get it dyno'd.

I can't tell you which programable tuner to get, everyone has their own preference. I use the TTS. But I think you should get one you control and program so you can change it yourself whenever you want vs one someone else puts a map into and if you want it changed you have to pay them to do it again.

Changing cams you will need a tune if you want to achieve a specific tune condition, how you get there is up to you; reflash, piggy back, Dyno, autotune. It really depends on what you are trying to achieve or what you are willing to accept. Just curious what your build plan is that requires a throttle body for a 95".

Sorry I don't know if the throttle body off a SE bike is larher, it might be if its off a 110" SE motor.

I'm not necessarily against using a larger throttle body, but it may not be necessary to use a larger throttle body, and it may actually have a negative effect on performance. Unless you are doing a fairly radical 95" build, high lift cam and oversize valves, a larger throttle body will not compliment your build plan. Higher intake velocity makes more power, bolt on a larger throttle body and you lose velocity. If you are going radical, then by all means use the larger throttle body, but if your doing a mild build with a bolt in cam, and maybe light port work on the heads, I wouldn't use a larger throttle body.
