techlusion vs bazzaz vs powercommander vs ecu flash????

pc11 can adjust timing, pc111 cant.

the techlusion is out, i downloaded some pc maps that would go with what i have, and while they seem to add alot of fuel in the midrange, they also take out alot in other areas...

id sorta like to try the ecu flash, but like you say, the "know how" is hard to find, along with money for the extended dyno time

let me know what you find AL

The Yoshi boxes are pretty limited I would check boostbysmith.com if you are thinking of ECU flashing got his box for 200. The PCIII needs that ad on timing module ( I have it) Even if you find the budget finding someone who knows the software (there are several programs for ECU flashing) is the challange

or this...looks a little banged up though...

The old units didn't hook up just before the injectors but between the ECU and the fuel management system. It will also adjust the timing of your bike. This one looks a little rough though....

If you want fuel and timing flexibility, get the PC. Most of the bikes that we custom dyno/map (5-10/wk) are waayyy off the correct ratio, downloaded "custom" maps and all. Bazazz are ok, and the high-end will get you TC, but no timing adjustment (why?), whereas the PC has fewer bells and whistles, but is easier to tune, has timing, and with a careful tuner, can get almost ideal fuel/air across the board.

And a decent map for every gear/throttle position takes about 3 hrs, not 1...if they're doing it in an hour, they're either only doing top gear, or they're only doing the top third of the throttle positions.

We remap 2-3 bikes/week done poorly by other shops.

I was actually thinking of the second one the third one is closer to what I would want. The kit I am using also offers the added ability on the Busa class machines (will work with all of the suzuki ecu just harder to find the software) of pulling the timing retard restrictions out of the upper gears and the Secondary throttle restrictions out of 1-3 on the B King and 1-2 on a busa (to qualify) My experience is with the Busa class Machines. Gregs kit is $199 software is free and you use your computer (usually a laptop) and the latest development for in the ECUDicator is using the on board oxygen sensor for low level data logging. (they are not wide band sensors) Many Busa guys are using the just ECU editing through this kit to mange their High Turbo Functions . Honestly having said all that for a day to day rider that is going to depend a a Tuner I would probably say go PC. I chose not to on the B King for the simplest of reason no space (took about 40 minutes to find a space for the Speedo healer) and price (275 to 300 for a PC 200 for the flash Kit)

thats what i found for $300 new, at the same site as you lol-im not too sure on the banged up one, i found a pcii brand new for a few dollars more... but i like the features of the yosh box, seems to have the same tuneability as a newer pc.

definitely good to know, and thats the type of tune id want.

also-i contacted a guy that does ecu flashing thru ebay, turns out hes pretty local, said if i let them use my bike and keep the dyno rights or whatever, they would do it for me(i think for free, im working that out now. . apparently they havent done a 2000 gsxr 750 before.

but these are my for sure options, so what do u think? banged up yosh for about 200 shipped, new pcii for 200 shipped, or new yosh for $300? cheapest pcii and above was in $300 range as well, and the way i see it, the yosh box adjusts timing but the pciii doesnt unless u get some add ons...

If you can get the ecu map and flash done for free, that would be good. Make certain they give you a copy for the unlikely circumstance of a bad ecu down the road.

i have the right ports on my laptop, ive played around with a pcii on a busa a few times. ill probably get the pcii.

im really hoping for the free ecu flash, and ill make sure to get a copy, but im still in talks with the guy, not sure how its gonna work out, if at all. but that would be my first choice cuz its free and its a complete tune. heres hoping

thanks for the input ev1
