NEW Fuelpak FP3
#191
Nope, I'm not a dyno tuner, but go ahead and keep believing that these little magical boxes are better than an actual dyno tune by someone that knows what they're doing. I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with them, just saying that a qualified dyno tuner will tune it better than the box will.

I installed the FP3 on my wifes new sportster 883 superlow along with a screaming eagle heavy breather and V&H short shot staggered pipes. I downloaded the recommended map from V&H. The bike ran good but with one problem. When the bike is warmed up to normal operating temp then shut down for a bit like when stopping for a stretch break etc. go to start the bike back up and it doesn't want to idle unless you give it a little throttle, it seems to be a tad rich judging by the smell of the exhaust and the slight black smokey exhaust at start up and low idle. Anyways, i tried the auto tune function after talking to a V&H tech and it just does not work for me. The first time the bike would not start while in auto tune mode, after reflashing the bike back to the stock map then flashing the bike back to the recommended map then back in auto tune mode again the bike started but it popped, sputtered and farted and ran like crap! I called V&H tech people again and told me to send them the downloaded map via the app on my phone. Did that approx. 4 months ago with no response. Ive tried calling many times and either got a busy signal or the run around when i did finally get through. Long story short, i reflashed back to the stock map and now have a $300 piece of crap paper weight! IMO not worth the $$ or the hassle. Next stop may be fuel moto so i can get rid of the decel popping on her bike. One more thing, i did have the dealer do the stage one download to the bike.
Ask your dealer, but I have herd that the stag one download will conflict with a tuner of choice. That may be the problem worth checking into.

Use the search function on this forum and enter Superchips. When results come back to you, enter down a few posts and you will see a 50+ page thread on their special offer. I believe you enter hdforum in the coupon code when you order and it reduces the price from $300 to $150+ $11 shipping. This is for the Vigilante EZ tuner. They offer a second tuner that stays on the bike and feeds your Bluetooth smartphone and displays engine info. I bought the Vigilante EZ, downloads and stays off the bike.

I was asking if the FPK3 stays on the bike once all that is done,like the power commander that was on my 2013 Limited it stayed plugged in all the time.

The FP3 does not need to remain plugged in unless you are flashing a tune or using the Auto Tune feature
