Default Ordered the Thundermax Autotune

Okay, tax return is disappearing quickly. After reading here and on other sites I'm sold on this product. I like the ability to auto tune the bike in real time. I had a stand alone engine management in my race car so I'm a little familar with EFI tuning. I bought it from http://www.cyclespot.com/Merchant2/m...nce_Thundermaxfor $729 shipped. This was the best deal that I found.

I will now be selling my PCIII and factory ECM with the Stage I download. Any ideas of what I can get for them?

Phil, I need to stop reading your posts! I keep buying items that you are installing.

Just got off the phone with Pete at Zippers. I will probably go this route also, I'm not real happy about the extra cost but this is a pretty awesome unit. They say the all in one unit will be available in 2 weeks, 869 out the door about 45 more than the dual unit. I will probably go with the remanned one for 729.........Save 150.00.

Nope, mine. I downloded both of the software programs from DTT and ThunderMax and played around a little with them. I prefered TM.
I also read several posts in 4 different forums about them. TM hasthe bettercustomer service and users felt that TM was simpler to use/install. Not knocking DTT, I just liked TM over the two.

Lastly, TM was $110 cheaper, comes with a 30 day money back tial, and 3 year warranty. It doesn't matter to me if it is in the newer 1 piece version or not.

Have you resolved your laptop issue? I have a pentium laptop that would be great for it that I might be interested in a trade for one of your mounts. I'd want the mount to work for a NUVI 350. PM me if interested.
