Got tuned today, some goods and bads
05/21/09 8:41 PM

First of all, the tuner was pretty awesome. He let me stand dyno-side the whole time, let me work on the bike, let me give my inputs on adjustments and stuff.. really cool.

I got everything on, PC3, nitrous, ignition module, airshifter (although that doesn't matter on the dyno).

The bads...
Ignition module didn't work. I don't know if its the wrong one or if its broke, but it wouldn't accept any adjustments over 6k rpm.
His printer was broke.. So i didn't get any printouts.
The brand new nitrous solenoid stuck. Which means i got no nitrous tune-age or pulls.
He claims his dyno reads LOW, meaning i'd get higher numbers anywhere else.
It was an hour and a half each way. lol


The final results:

194 rwhp, 110 ft/lbs of torque.

It ran a 9.02 on pump gas and the baffle in the exhaust. I put race gas in it, and pulled the baffle before the first dyno pull so it naturally already gained power before he even tuned it. Before he tuned anything, it made 184 and 101, meaning i gained 10 HP and 9 ft/lbs.

Needless to say, regardless of the downers in the day i'm still pretty excited.

Your brand new nitrous solenoid may have stuck due to pieces of teflon tape inside the system if you used it on any of the fittings.. I had the same problem..just dissasemble, blow out and go light on the teflon..I also had better results filling my air-shifter bottle with nitrous rather than compressed air. the extra cost was minimal due to the tiny amount needed to perform the shift..
Nice dyno numbers btw .. !!

Rob are you running 14lbs with no intercooler or water injection? Just pulling timing on the stock motor? If so we got ourselves one tough motor in these bikes

SAE or STD and what mods?

Mind telling us what map you were running prior to the tune? That's a nice gain - how much did tuning run you?
