    Lot of programs has problems dynoing with Reinheart. Ture duals are even worst. Its got something to do with the Reverb.

    There are better pipes than the Reinharts out there that give better performance.

    There are many excellent exhaust pipes out there. Everyone I know who put the Rinehart's on has removed them and gone to another exhaust. I would do some research on all the different brands. Everyone has their favorites but do the research.

    Lord, you ask for a tuner and get a butt load of "Your pipe choice sucks" answers LOL

    You might as well as asked whats better, blondes, redheads or Brunettes :rolleyes:

    The answer is that true duals CAN be tuned properly and the Reinhart have been out for a long time and some tuners like them.

    I would talk with Jamie at Fuel Moto USA.com about a Powercommander 5 and possibly adding Auto Tune if you are not close to a tuning facility or
    would like to tweak the map to your bike.

    Jamie will probably have a map that is just about spot on from the get go.

    Also the TTS Mastertune is a PC based tuning product so you don't add
    on a device like the powercommander if that bothers you..

    Not an EFI guy, but I like my Vance & Hines pipes. Run the 2 into 1 for the best usable power range. My best recommendation is for ya to take that combat pay you're earning and get the best possible set-up this time.

    Had a Power Commander V that I got from Jamie with Fuel Moto on my 08 bike.
    Even had it dynoed. It was giving me and several other of my buddies problems. The tach would not go over 5000 rpm for the start.
    You can't change yer rev limiter. When you try to romp on itSuper hard with it extended it goes dead till you release the throttle.
    You can't tell when yer going to hit the rev limiter.
    It didn't crank easy all the time.
    This is just a couple of problems.
    Took it to a Wolfgang Grasser to have it checked out.
    It had a program in the beginnin of the program and had a program at the end of the program. In the middle of the program it had erased the program
    Got another Thunder-Max for TBW bikes about a year after they was released.
    Me and several of my buddies had taken Power Commanders off and we all have Thunder-Max on our bike now.
    8 if us can't be wrong.


    The Thunder-Max will hand down blow the PCV off the map. And it don't take up all the room under the seat and all loke the PCV with Auto Tune does.
