Default Dynojet Auto Tune Kit for PCV - is it user friendly?

or do you have to be a high-tech savvy computer guru

still need to tweek my PCV some, and it seems the Dynojet Auto Tune Kit add-on just may be the ticket?

I'd prolly have to keep it/default it for Autotune, even though it is adjustable for per say applications, bike is hesitant and sometimes sputters on quick throttles at certain RPM's when shifting. it's certainly not lugging, even does it at low speeds/RPM's, may just have to up the A/F in 5% increments from the PCV for the tweek?, it was pre-mapped per my Stage1 mods from Fuel Moto , nothing unique.

If you are going with Fuel Moto for your tuner, they will give you all the info you need and walk you through the process. Instead of all that equipment, you might look at the Power Vision which plugs into the diagnostics port and flashes your ECM. Supposedly does everything that the PCV and Auto Tune modules do. Just a smaller more user friendly interface. The software interface may take a bit of a learning curve but does not look too bad unless you are computer illiterate. Even then, I think they could walk you through it.

After talking to Jamie and some others that are running Power Vision, it will be my next tuner. I'm sure someone who is running one will chime in.

I am currently running a "flash" tune. Software downloaded from Delphi and dyno'ed.

Call Powercommander(great support), they will walk you through(with PC-V and AT if you so choose which is a great unit BTW, just got one myself) until you get your issue addressed if possible. Seriously...

DynoJet Power Vision replaces all the other stuff. It is a stand alone unit. Look at Fuel Moto's website. Lots of good info and videos there.

I'd talk to Fuelmoto first. Their maps are usually pretty close. You may have another issue.

The AT works with the PCV. It is fairly easy to use. There are many posts here on how to adjust. The AT install provides more opportunities to make a mistake or skip a step. I have runt the AT on my bikes for over 20K miles and have been pretty happy with them.

Yes, very user friendly, about the only good thing I have to say about the PCV and AT.

There's some confusion here about how PV and PCV-AT work. First, both the PCV and PV work with the AT-100 kit but not in the same way. The PCV-AT provides real-time auto-tuning of AFRs over the entire operating range. The PV does not and cannot since it is a flash-based tuner that works in conjunction with the ECM, which does not work with the wideband O2 sensors in the Auto-Tune kit. The AT-100 kit is used with the PV as a tuning device only and does not provide true on-the-fly auto-tuning.

Now, to address the OP's question, the AT kit requires some installation effort but this shouldn't be a problem for anyone with basic tools who can read the instructions. You will need an O2-sensor socket of some sort to replace the stock O2 sensors with WB sensors in the kit. Once done you'll need to have the PC software installed on a computer accessible to the bike via USB cable to verify AT is working properly. You can do this by checking the trim tables, which should show data in the cells you have hit during your first run after installing.

If you plan on making changes to your configuration and/or like to tweak you would likely benefit from adding AT. For most riders I think it isn't necessary if you already have a Fuel Moto map installed in your PCV.

great info, I'll just stick with the PCV and go up on the AFR's in 5% increments until I get the sweet spot.
