New B with a ??? - PC3 or Teka Box
- Thread starter Ross1
- Start date
wow I have seen alot of bad comments about the Teka. I won't get into a "this is better than that" since I do not have experience with the PC but for me the teka works great. I haven't had any problems with mine and it tunes my bike just fine.
Now I have not tried a custom mapped PCIII so I do not have apples to apples experience but the Teka unit does do what it says it will.
Now are there better choices?? hell yes there is better choices, but like alot of members have said here if you are new to the bike then you would be better off with the PCIII since there is such a huge following with them. Most tuners use them so as far as the support for the PC there is nothing better.
I am going to do a comparo after I get my bike fixed, first I will tune the bike on the dyno with the teka and see where I get then I will install a PCIII and see where I get with the PC to see the actual differences. I have at my disposal a dynojet dyno for tuning and will post the story as I do it.

Stage 1 turbo?We have no Powercommanders on any of our bikes here.. we tune our stiff with the Teka box. One advantage Teka has is that you only have to buy one. If you have 5 bikes, you will need 5 Power commanders. Only One Teka box will do em all..
I don't have an argument. I'm not saying one is better than the other. I do see some posts from guys who obviously feel very strong about their opinion, yet they don't seem to have any facts to back up their choice? It will be interesting to see if anyone chims in with a real break down on the relationship between the PC & Teka Box to the ECU.
That's some link....
Alhough I feel a little stoopid trying to understand what the f*ck they are talkin' about.
Me likey new tire!
(Me thinks gravity is NOT a factor in weather a tire is balenced or not.)
Thanks, I think.
cheers

Not going to bash tekka but will say why I personally preffer the PC3usb.
It does not "flash"or re-program the factory ecu.It is a "DIC" direct injector control unit.It modifies the signal coming from the ecu to the injectors.You can unplug it at anytime without compromizing any factory warranty issues with a ecu.
The fact that you can modify fuel delivery from idle,2%,5%,10%,20%,40%,50%,60%,80%,&100% throttle position at every single rpm you can ever come across at any time, in any gear, is also a plus.
I also like the expansion port that you can plug in a number of cool toys into.Like,timing control module,or a quick shifter,or even a LCD display.
On v twins & harleys,you can even tune each cylinder individually if you want.This will be avail soon for inline 4's.
Dynojet developed the 1st FI controller and has set the industry standard for others to follow.(did you know the guy who started tekka used to work for dynojet?)oops did I say that.
Dynojets Tuninglink software used by their approved tuning centers is the best automated tuning program the cycle industry has to offer.(not saying the "step"tuning method doesnt work.
When I decided to purchase a dyno for my bikeshop,I did my homework.It was a big investment.There are alot of dyno companies out there that make a decent dyno.I chose dynojet because of their complete line of products that work hand in hand with their software,dyno,and most of all their powercommander.Just my opinion

No..Stage 3 Velocity setups(We have the 2007 Superstreet championship bike ,plus the new one we just built) We hold the MPH and ET records for this class...7.91 ET and 191 MPH..

I hate to disappoint you fella's but I don't trash talk anyone. However, I am waiting for anyone who has posted up statements on one unit being better than the other to simply give us some back up as to why they have made that assumption? Anyone can make claims and statements (You know the old grade school trash "My daddy can whip your daddy" stuff) I'm just amazed that no one seems to be willing to share their reasons for their choice, other than "My choice is XYZ because it's better known to tuners"?
I will give you fella's a morsel to savor!
Did you know, by piggy backing a PC to your ECU, it actually slows down the operational speed of your ECU? Just like adding a program to your computer that works within another program, slows the entire operation down. Of course you won't find that little tidbit on any Power Commander site.
The Teka Box does not piggy back your ECU thus does not reduce the operational speed.
+1 for the Teka Box.
Anyone who can add pro's or con's to either unit, please post up! Dialog among the troups can be entertaining as well as very informative!
