There is absolutely no substitute for a custom tune. Find a recommended tuner in you local area and find out what tuner they prefer. I like the TTS but there are other good tuners. Do any other wanted mods before the tune, i.e., high flow air filter, ect.
Exactly what I was going to say.

There is definitely a difference as the 2007 uses throttle position for the vertical cells on the VE table and the 2010 up uses Manifold absolute Pressure or % load to determine the vertical position. The throttle position and percent load are not the same. Only time they are is when the throttle is wide open. The 2014 touring maps can uses either type map with the PV. They only use throttle position on the SEPST and don't know on TTS. The OP asked if there was a difference in the two years and yes the ECM is probably twice as fast on the 12 as the 07.

IOW, the timing tables, target AFRs, and VEs are going to be damn close to one another even though the processor and tuning methods are different.
For giggles I took a look at a couple of different TTS calibrations.....CTC009-03 for 2012 and CPZ176-03 for 2007. They're both basic A/C only tunes, so they should be somewhat similar. As you noted, they're displayed differently due to both the MAP/TP difference and far greater resolution in the newer cal (more gradients in RPM and MAP for timing, etc). Still, if you start looking at individual cells, they're pretty close.

It'd be interesting to run an exhaust probe on a dyne with two stock bikes (2007 & 2012) to see what the actual difference in mixture is.....I'd bet the tune might be a bit leaner on the '12 due to the converter, but that's a SWAG.

That is what I was referring to. There is hidden differences in the ve tables. When using Throttle position cruise is in 15 to 20% area. When using Kpa the cruise is in the 50 to 60% load area. That is a very large difference when converting from one to the other. As far as tuning go's once tuned they should act basically the same. The AFR/Lambda and Spark tables are near identical on all the maps. You are correct about the late models having higher resolution. Look at a 614 strategy on 2014 touring. It has atleast 50% more resolution than the 13's. On the PV the 2014 maps have both Kpa % load and TP on same map. You can easily see the difference.
I have built well over 50 maps for folks and the easiest are the ones with cams. The difficult ones are the stock and stock CVO's. The new cams in the 14's are actually very easy to tune and perform real well. I have done 5 2014's 3 on SEPST and 2 on PV's. Getting off subject.

Check out the link below. This has worked well for me. No expensive dyno tunes and trying to find somebody that can actually do a good dyno tune, no screwing around with a laptop trying to achieve the perfect tune. Just install and go. And once you get it set up, if you make exhaust changes or breather changes, cam changes, it will re-adjust and keep on going.

Ive had a PCIII since 06 with zero problems. TTS is a good one but the guys I know who have it tried tuning themselves and ended up going to tuner. I ride with guys who also swear by TM as well..

I agree since I have one but the ECM has to be reflashed after a cam change.

I was doing cams when I got mine so I'm good. the following is what it says on their website.....question #11 I believe.

I thought that also but when I called to confirm, they advised me to ship my ECM back to them for adjustment.
