Happyphantomspacedog Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 I've had my 929 w/an Erion Bolt-on since the end of June and it runs flat out great... However, I was on eBay and like a dummy put a bid on a Power Commander IIIr (I didn't think i'd win, but I did). My question: Will the power commander have noticeable results in the low and mid-range (acceleration), or is it a waste of time? Should I just re-list on eBay? Also heard that removing the K&N and replacing with stock air filter helps the ponies w/this model. Any thoughts?Thanks, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTM Brian Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 After you get your power commander you need to come see for a custom map that includes tuning of the entire throttle position and rpm range. "Canned" maps are usually junk. Every once in awhile I get one that is close. Most of the time I have to start from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoblick Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 power commanders are worth the money IF you get a custom tune.get a BMC air filter, put the PC on and then go see brian at dynotune motorsports and you will be happy.while your at it, before you tune it remove the PAIR (emissions stuff) nets you a way more accurate tune.

Happyphantomspacedog Posted August 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Holy cow!!! The power commander just showed up in the mail today! Thanks guys for the info BTW. Per your advice I just checked out Dynotunemotorsports.com and saw they've got custom maps starting at $150. That said, what's a ball park figure I can expect in terms of price? Also - Hoblick says remove "the pair (emissions stuff)," for a more accurate tune. What is that exactly and is it something I can do? I've done oil changes, spark plug replacement - things like that... Thanks, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
