    Got my Power Commander 5 and AutoTune installed today. I'm using a funky map from a PC3, so it will take a few rides to get in tuned in to my bike.

    I'm shooting for 13.2:1 afr. and I'll fine tune it later. First thing I noticed was a lower idle speed(not sure why). The low end is still not right, but the mid range is soooo smooth, I find myself going much faster than it feels. I'll keep accepting the AT trims and hope for the best.

    I'll post some picks of the install later.

    Great to hear!!!! If you keep giving good feedback I'll be in the market for the same rig to put in my 2000.

    Has it already cleaned up the rough (on/off-off/on) transition of the throttle at low speeds?

    Ok, just realized you probably don't mean this is for a 2000. What bike is it on? A new VFR?

    It's on my y2k 5th gen. It has not totally cleaned up the bottom end, but I've only made two runs(trim saves), and I'm using a funky PC3 map as a starting point. In a week I'll have a good map, and I'll upload it for others to use, if there running a gutted airbox, with a PiperCross filter and Staintune pipe.

    Here's some pics.:smile: As you can see, I was able to use the stock location for the o2 sensor, but I could not route the PC5 cables to the battery area, so I stuck them behind the upper faring. It works! Today I'll look for a surface mount USB, so I can plug in without removing the side faring.:cool:

    Hi did you order the PC-V to a Vtec 2009, did all the cables fit? I have a gen5 2001 and want a PC-V not a PC3. Did you change something on the bike to get it to work? Sry for my bad english :cool:
