Default Tuner Question for a newbie.

If I add Torque inserts to a set of straight (Kinetic) pipes should I get a remap? Bike is mapped with my a/c and exhaust (non TQ) currently.

What is "non TQ"?

It is always a good idea to tweak your tune to match your mods to get the best performance out of it.

With that being said, because you already mapped for your AC and exhaust (assuming stage 1 upgrades), just run your pipes with TTI's and do a butt dyno.....you will likely feel or hear the difference good or bad.

What kind of tuner do you have?

Non TQ as in no inserts just straight pipes, FuelMoto, but didn't want to bother them with asking such a little question. Before I really knew.

Just get on their website and fill out the form to get a new map. It takes about 3 business days for them to come back with something. If they send you a new map, compare the two and see what comes up. I had to get a new one when I installed TTI's but I also removed the baffles.

It's free so I wouldn't worry about bothering them.

Yeah. or email jamie...he is very helpful. I asked him a similar question when I changed out my AC (both stage 1 but different types). Fortunately I did not have to remap.
