Old map new tuner
Can I install a New PC III if my bike already has a map downloaded from another tuner?
My bike is running like $#&! so I took it to the Harley shop. They said that a map had already been loaded, but I didn't have the module. They said I would have to buy a new tuner to get rid of the popping and other running problems before they could do anything with it.
So my question is: With out the old tuner module, can I just buy a new PC III and install, download their map and be fine?

any idea what map was installed and with what tuning device?
if it's just a stage 1 HD download, go for it with the PC III but you'll need to tweak that as well. DynoJet might have something for you to download for your mods...

Is your bike stock, Stage 1 or more mods?
If its stock or Stage 1 you can pay the 150 and have HD flash it to a HD Dealer approved download and it will run, still lean and EPA compliant or you can try a PC III for your bike since it is a 2005 and a canned MAP, if you go this way do yourself a favor and buy from Fuel Moto so you have their support and huge library of MAPs.
Or if it was me Id get a Power Vision from Fuel Moto and flash the ECM to whatever you need back to stock, a canned MAP and then data log to self tune.

should be good to go with a stage 1 download only. still might take a little tweaking but that's the benefit of dealing with FM.. they'll help you get it right

do they still do the download without a tuner, as in the HD street or race. I thought I read that downloads are now through the street tuner which you have to buy
