Ok guys, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m about as bright as a Kentucky lightbulb when it comes to bikes. (And a lot of other poop my wife just informed me)
So I was under the impression that when I install my akrapovic exhaust (full system) that I need a tune and that tune could be fine with a ecu flash.
But today my little world of perceived understanding was crushed when I was told that I also need a power commander (or equivalent) for the fuel mapping portion of the tune. That you can’t really map out the fuel through a ecu flash.
TL/DR
one guy says stick on exhaust and send ecu to be flashed for that specific exhaust.
Other dude says you have to have the ecu flashed as well as a fuel management system and it needs to go on a dyno.
Also, I’m in the Cincinnati area, who around here has a dyno and is reputable?
