Default PCV or not?

Hi all, things are warming up here and I have bike on the mind... I'm putting new pipes on, and of course an air filter, and I'm wondering if the power commander is worth the money, or should I just go to Harley and get them to upgrade the stock programing. I'll also mention that there's no dyno shop around, so I'd have to use a canned map. Also, I still have one year warranty left, and that'll void it for engine problems. Any advice would be great.

Get a power commander instead of the Harley download. the download is a waste of $150. MY BIKE HAD THE DOWNLOAD WHEN i GOT IT AND IT RAN LIKE CRAP. ADDED A PC AND IT RAN WAY BETTER.

Definitely the PCV and definitely get it from FuelMoto. The bottom line is that you'll pay about the same everywhere but FuelMoto will be there for you when you need a MAP and if you have problems or questions. Also, with the PCV you can upload a new MAP when ever you want. Just hook it up to a laptop.
Good Luck Bro.

+1 on the PCV, Fuel Moto and Jamie. Jamie will set it up for your bike and it will be very close. I have a '06 Heritage, which is not on the PCV fitment list, and Jamie set it up. Much better! I later had it dyno'd to get about 5 extra HP. Good luck.
