I’m not sure if it’s the same issue or not but I just installed a set of Rinehart True Dual exhaust along with a Power Commander on my 2007 Screamin’ Eagle Ultra and am having a similar problem.
When I crack the throttle I get a slight sputter. It’s enough that when taking off the RPM’s have to be significantly higher than normal or the bike will stall. The guys at the shop have tried just about everything and can’t seem to get the bike to respond properly. We have contacted Power Commander and they said it only happens on certain individual models and have not been able to come up with a fix as of yet.
One of the suggestions they made is to turn the Accelerator Pump Feature off. Another is to install a Race Tuner which, I have been told will void my warranty.
I haven't had a chance to get the bike back to the shop to try any of the suggestions.

I tried richening up the rear cylinder today and it might have helped, but still there.
Mine doesn't have any problem from a dead stop, and seems to idle well. I didn't need to readjust my idle, but I noticed in either the Rinehart TD or PCIII instructions (can't remember which) they said it may be necessary. Wonder if you have a problem there?

Could be a similar problem, but mine only occurs between ~ 2250 and ~2750 at low throttle settings, like when I cruising at 25 - 45 mph. If I have the throttle open more underl load, like when accelerating from a stop, it does okay.

Just wondering: Have you experimented with the Accelerator Pump feature? If so, what were your results?
