Hello All,

I have a R3R with Jardines, PCV and under th seat K&N. I had it tuned at a local shop. After over 2 hours on the Dyno, the Tuner was able to get it at 140hp and 141tq. He was able to smoove out the power curve, and it has great pull, but after reading multiple posts on Triple KNs I am thinking of pulling the trigger on some. I am also wanting to undo the retarded timing, as well as squeak some more HP/TQ while still using PCV. (you can never have too much!)

I have read about using Tune Ecu in addition to PCV, but have also read a lot about the GiPro. Below are a couple of options I am looking at. I confess I am a newbie at tuning and mods, so I am looking to all the experienced Captains here to offer any advice, experience and pointers.

1) Install Triples, remove secondaries, and install GiPro, and have another map done at the Dyno
2) Install Triples, use Tune Ecu to open secondaries, eliminate timing retard (if possible), and install Auto Tune

With regards to option 2, will auto tune use my existing custom map and adjust off it to compensate for the triples? With a custom map at my tuner costing 300 bucks where I live, the Auto Tune would pay for itself, but I don't know which would produce better results.
Thanks for your patience and any help you can offer.

Option 2 would be better and you can always save your custom tune and try my Afr Table map it the PCV + AT, here is a suitable tune to load into your ECU using TuneECU to sort out your ignition retard and open the secondaries then add the AT to your PCV you will be se,t PM me your e-mail and I will send you the hanso AFR Table map to load into the PCV

Update on my progress. I just received my Tune Ecu Cable, and am waiting on my auto tune and triple KNs to arrive to install everything. With Hanso's tunes he sent me, I can't wait to see what she does. Right now I have 140hp and 141tq with a PCV, Jardines and single KN.....Not shabby but for some reason I crave more. . Will keep you updated.
 

Its the same reason you bought a rocket! Because you can!!!
 
Happy Holidays all,

I just finished my christmas project:

Installed Triples and Auto Tune, and uploaded HANSO's TUNE ECU and PCV Tune. As my kids would say.....OMG! I have read for a while on this forum about "unleashing the Beast" and now I finally know what it is like. After my test ride, I am still trying to get the adrenaline to subside!

Special thanks to HANSO for sharing your tunes.

Hope everyone has a blessed New Year.
 
Cold showers help....
Glad you are Happy
