Default Fuel Management - Fuel Moto Pipes

I'm sure there will be lots of opinions but I am looking to put a set of
Jackpot HTC Ceramic Headpipes and Jackpot Pro Touring 4.5” Mufflers on my 2013 CVO Road Glide when it comes in.

Which fuel management system would people recommend between:

1.)PC-V
2.)PowerVision
3.ThunderMax

I may opt to do some cam work down the road too, so I want the flexibility. Will probably just call Jamie at FuelMoto but looking for the forum members opinions too based on their experiences.

similar to another post today.

you are buying a new expensive bike...why wouldn't you keep the warranty in force until you know they built you a good bike?

a huge part of the value of a new bike is the warranty, why throw that out the window.

Such mythology - Mike - many HD Dealers actually resell this stuff, I dont think it voids the warranty unless they can prove it caused the problem.

And if voiding the warranty is your biggest concern, should you have a problem, put your stock parts back on and reflash back to the stock map.

If $ was no option....Thundermax hands down. Budget minded PV or PCV.

Definitely ThunderMax...cost more, but saves you in the long run, IMO.

Power Vision with the auto tune. Fuel Moto is running a special on the combo so it runs less then the ThunderMax. If you need to do warranty work all you need to do is load the stock map back on and disconnect the unit. Nice if you are on the road since you do not have to carry the stock ECU to put back on as you would with the ThunderMax.
That being said the ThunderMax is a good unit.

In the thousands and thousands of customers we have worked with over the last 10 years we have never seen anyone denied warranty coverage over Stage 1 mods

Default Thanks Jamie

Thanks for the warranty statement above, Jamie. I think I have narrowed it down to the Thundermax and PowerVision for my pending setup. Do you have a strong opinion one way or another that might help me finalize a choice? As far as flexibility or any other characteristics?

Brian gave me a price on the ceramic headers, Pro Pipes and the Thundermax I was referencing in my initial post, I can reach out to him to see the price differential with the Power Vision if that is a better choice.
