What is "MyTune"? Can it be used to track data with other tuners, specifically a PCV?

EDIT: Nevermind... I just googled it and found my answer.

I would have liked to have known about this mytune software about a year ago.
:-( could have saved me some dough when I had ping issues with my SE255 cams.

Dont intend to hijack the OP's thread, but when I read these threads on this subject I wonder why people dont use the PowerVision AutoTune or the ThunderMax SmartTuner types of tuners. Dont these devices auto tune while riding the bike and under different environments (heat, altitude, etc)?

The AutoTune features only adjust the fuel delivery to the AFR targets you set. They don't just magically "tune" your bike. You still need to set the targets that the AutoTune will strive to achieve. And as for ignition timing, the AutoTune does nothing for that.

I wish the sellers of tuning software would point out those limitations of their "self, auto, smart, tune" capabilities. It's not really tuning. Real engine tuning requires measuring power output at varying rpm's and engine loads. Then tweeking fuel, timing, and air to maximize that power. I don't think any tuning software can do that unless the bike is being tested on a dyno. Of course you can always do the seat-of-the-pants trial and error thing. I did that for a year. Thought I had it tuned pretty good. Then I had it dyno tuned by a practiced tuner. Big difference!

I have the SEPST and it does have an auto-tune feature. I've used it and it works great for me.
