What to use to tune with full exhaust system?
« on: January 21, 2014, 11:14:12 AM »
Hi fellow speed freaks, I'm adding a full exhaust system to an otherwise stock Gen II busa.  I don't want to get too crazy with complications or spend a lot of time tuning etc.  Should I just add a PC 5, do the correct mapping and call it a day? I don't know a lot about ecu editor or tuning and I'm just looking for an easy way to get it done.  Also, would a single sided exhaust throw off the balance of the bike at all?

Thanks!

if you go with a brocks exhaust he will send you a map for a Power Commander. single side exhaust wont change balance

I like to balance it by strapping a helmet on the left side .  :hys:

+1 this may be the best way to go, because even though popular, ECU flashing is not known by all tuners, but a Powercommander is very well known
The older you get do you notice you start chickening out way before the bike does

Yes, the PC5 would be the easiest way to go.
I've never felt anything different on a single sided exhaust. Non issue IMO.

Any decent tuner, if he can tune a PC should be able to tune with Editor. So Spend 400 for a PC 5 , then toss a generic tune at it, or use editor and spend the 400-- or less--- to get it tuned right.Where are you?
Heck, buy a Woolrich set-up and data log and auto-tune, no dyno needed.
