Power Commander worth it?

I am thinking of what I should do this off season to make some improvements to my bike. It won't be getting much use with cold and snow so I am looking at what I can do to make my bike better for next year. I eventually want to put an exhaust on but not right now since I would probably just have to park it anyway and without the PC it probably won't run better but get louder. For now the on/off response is my only real complaint with the bike and if it richens it up and helps the power that would be a bonus. Anybody running stock exhaust with the PC?

 

The on/off throttle issue was my main complaint as well. Just became too annoying, especially on those super sharp hair pin turns when unsettling the chasis isn't exactly ideal. The PCIII USB cured this, along with the low RPM surging mine was experiencing. Stock exhaust, at least for now.

 

ABSOlutively worth every penny, I ran mine stock with PCIII, O2 eliminators, and BMC air filter,while I waited for my CF Leo Vinces exhausts to come in. it will minimize the VTEC transition point. I just had a custom map done on my girl after installing the pipes. she runs beautifully stronger and smoother turns 102.4 hp at rear wheel.

 

Just went to your gallery to see the bike with the pipes.... Looks great!! I like the sound clip the most. Was there any any difference in power or throttle response with the stock pipes on beside the vtec transition? I don't mind the transition now I am just wondering if it makes it smoother everywhere else.

 

Did not seem to be mostly just smoothed out the transition so it was barely noticeable you could hear the transition more than feel it with the PCIII installed

But the new sound is awesome
she also lost about 12 lbs in weight
with the new map and the pipes i think she pulls stronger and runs smoother
I am working on finding out if she has any loss of MPG i'll post it when I get a few tanks through her

 

I considering the same thing, with an '05. Have done PAIR blockoff, O2 elim with resistors, and flapper valve. Running stock pipes, not going to change them. I have got a few very tight (120degree) very low speed (15km) corners close to home, and I find the bike pretty snatchy around 2500rpm. Is there a chance that a PCIII would fix this?
