TuneECU - does a map....

OldBiker72 said:

I uploaded my TuneECU map today. I made it a bit more aggressive by having the last 3 columns of ETV (3) all 100%. I copied the Penner AFR columns to my map. So in essence I kept Rain and Road mode as is but Sport mode now has the extra performance side added. I had no issues uploading the 19 minute procedure. After installing there were no issues flagged or errors reported. I did not do Adjustments but only let the bike idle for 17 minutes and then did a short 20 km test run. The Shift Assist (QS) and Cruise Control remained unaffected. I think it is after 5500 rpm that the bikes feels stronger... so below that it is as normal. I will do a longer run and also see how the fuel consumption is affected. Thank you to all who made inputs and suggestions - much appreciated! Regards!

If you’re going to use his AFR table I suggest that you use his F tables, which he changed, and his L tables, if the L tables are changed in the Penner map you got the AFR table from.

One reads many map related posts. A lot of people will install a modified map (usually the ETV and AFR) using for instance TuneECU etc. The whole procedure is explained and seems well covered. However there is not much feedback on how the real performance changed after the map (maybe I just did not see that?) So the question then: Is there a real noticeable difference after the map in a Rocket 3 for instance? If so I wonder why it is not applied more widely? I have a LX dongle and a registered copy of TuneECU, used to reset the service indicator on various bikes. Regards.

I have a 2007 Rocket 3 and I'm looking to have someone put a custom tune on my bike. I do not have the skills or confidence to do it myself and would love some help. I live in Greenville South Carolina so if anyone knows someone near me that can do this please let me know.

Im new to the tuning and plan on Penners tune. I would like a tune that will hit hard just over 4k and continue. Is there any recommendations for this or can I get some feedback from Penner himself? I have a 2022 GT and came from a Gen2 V-Max so its not my first rodeo. Any help would be appreciated and leads in the right direction would also be helpful. I'm guessing I won't know which tune to use until I get my OBD2 scanner and tune ECU hooked up to the bike.

And my other question is can I get this type of tune from Penner or would I be better off to go with the BT tune?

Penner’s unrestricted tunes are at Tuneecu.net under custom 3 cylinder. Choose the tune for your model and market. Tuneecu for Android is on Tuneecu.fr. Read the manual. You will need an OBDLink LX or MX+ Bluetooth module and an Android device like a Samsung tablet or phone. There are a couple of other BT modules recommended in the basic guide. Go with OBDLink if possible. This is a small investment to get 170+ rwhp. You can always spend a crapload more money on BT-Moto if Penner doesn’t work for you. Penner’s tunes are for stock bikes.

I bought the LX today downloaded Tuneecu. Im on a Google Pixel 10. So do I read my stock tune which will direct me to the correct penner tune? From a few videos I've seen they've adjusted the last two to three columns up to 100%. For the columns prior to those, would it do anything to create a curve in the upper RPM and change those to 100 or just adjust the last two to three? My thought is above my RED line to make those 100? Good/Bad idea or not needed?
