Even bone stock, there is a bit of a low rpm stumble and they surge a bit as well. They are just too lean. Change out the cans and of course it leans out even more. I ran the PC V on my Muscle. Downloaded a map that was on their website for my exact mufflers (V&H Comps). Ran better. But there was still was a little off idle stumble and of course there was an absurd amount of deceleration popping.

If you go over to 1130cc.com and look on their forums, you might find a map for the PC V that's a lot better than the "canned" maps on the Power Commander site. I downloaded one called "Phoenix 2012" or something like that and my bike ran perfect.
