From everything I'm reading, after the auto tune reads the afr a few times and sets up the trim levels, there is really nothing more it needs to do...

So it got me thinking? Why buy one if I can pay someone to borrow it. A dyno is $250/300..the autotune kit is around $250..so maybe someone here has the PC-V auto tune and wouldn't mind lending it out for people to borrow for a small fee?

Right??

 

subscribing... also interested.

 

I am nor sure about a PC-V but I was told with my SE Super Tuner they are specific to one bike and that Computer. Once it is set to say my SB it will not do you any good for your bike.

doesnt the autotune use its own 02 sensors not the stockers?

 

That is not true about the PC-V or Autotune.

 

Correct.

The auto tune is an add on module that connects to your PC-V and has wide band O2 sensors included with it.

You'd basically be borrowing the unit and sensors.

 

id also be interested in renting one

don't think so.

that tuner does its tuning while it is connected.

So the question would be once it tunes does the tune stay with the PCV? If so this thread makes sense.

 

From what I understand, the PCV does not make changes in the ECM, unlike some other kinds of tuners. It stores the map and any changes it makes from the auto tune in its module. So you can spend the time (if you can find someone who will lend it to you) to install it and the O2 sensors, and as soon as you return it to its owner you're back where you started. Needing to buy a tuner.
If I'm wrong someone will tell me soon enough.
