Smile Power vision and V&H throttle pack???

If I get a Power vision for my 2012 FLHX, will I see any improvement using a Vance and Hines Throttle pack as well????
Anyone using both?
Or does the Power Vision make the throttle pack not necessary???

Cheers
All the best for the big 2014

No you will not use both Why? two different strategies that really are like comparing apples and oranges. Of those two power vision really is the best choice. Power vision is a very good tool if you do your home work and learn how to use it.

The Power Vision will do everything you need. Adding the V&H is unnecessary. Make any changes you need with the PV

The Throttle Pack goes inline between the ecu and the sensors and changes the signal coming from the sensors to fool the ecu into doing what it wants. The Power Vision loads new firmware to the ecu. With the ability to change large amounts of information through the Power Vision software, the Throttle Pack would only be a hindrance.

Use the search and a lot of this has been discussed before. There was another thread with this same question recently. Jamie from Fuel Moto replyed and said he would not recommend using the Throttle Pack with a PV tune. The PV has the capabilities to make throttle response adjustments and using the TP would negatively effect the tune

EXACTLY!

I tried using both, and the ThrottlePak really scrambled what the PV was/is supposed to do for my ECM. They DO NOT work in tandem with one another.

Thanks for your Comments, appreciate them.
I just wanted to be sure the Power Vision was all I needed to sort it out.
Cheers
