ok I think I may befinallygetting a grasp on the wholeSert/PCIII thing. the afore mentioned allows me (theowner) to do their own programming based on known add-ons using already tested or dynoed parameters. Absent the use of a Sert, PCIII, or similar system, the owner needs to take their bike to the dealer or other dyno equipped shop to reprogram their ECM to match or maximize various breather,exhaust, and othermodifications.

am I getting this right, or still stuck in gibberish land?

based on all the posts about gettingthe Sert or PCIII, one must assume the costa dyno supported reprograming must be very cost prohibitive (expensive).

again am I getting this right or am I still stuck in gibbersih land?

 

Most Dyno shops can do a basic tuning for a reasonable cost. Take a looks at some of the maps on the power commander site and you will see that they have numerous maps to accompany the mods you do to your bike. This may help you understand what you want to do and what results you can expect. Go check an authorized tuning center in your area, i am sure they can give you the information you are really looking for.
best wishes for the New Year

 

sounds about right.
Im working on my own theory.
279 plus s&h you can get a pcIII(*) thats about 95 to 99% currect for your set-up,can keep it and change it for free.
(or) get sert and or others(*) and have hd/technician tweek every last drop of tq/hp,sert stays with bike and not so free.

in conclution pcIII(*) for people that either are not going to do major engine mods or can live with the fact that they dont need every last drop of tq/hp as long as its a happy engine.
(*)others . im still very green. heard mention of auto tuners,tdi,ldfkhgirhgi ....

 

I dont have an EFI bike, so I'm ignorant about this stuff......BUT.....for auto applications, you can do performance tuning right off of a laptop, provided you have the right aftermarket ECM.

How come nobody has come up with that stuff for Harley yet? Seems there would be a big market for it.

And if this is what we are already talking about, I will feel like a tard.

 

well, you are a tard!

 

You guys need to go back and reread some of the posts on EFI management devices. NO, you do not have it right.

 

PCIII can be programed from your home computer. I am not sure on the SERT as I do not have one. Also, a good Dyno Tuner should be able to tune your bike in 2-hours or less. I was told by the people that did mine it takes longer to tune a SERT. I paid $350.00 for the dyno tune on my PCIII.

Was it worth the money in your opinion? I have an 06' Street Glide that I put Rineharts, PCIII, and a SEAC on, and they used the map on the web site of Power Commander that had the exact setup.

So do you feel that there maps are close, or was there a major difference. Some people have said that there pretty close. I'm just trying to find out if it's worth the money to dyno?

 

hmmm....well, Dorothy, we ain't in Kansas anymore!
