I wanted to get a thread started to consolidate information about this product. There are already plenty of Power Commander III (PC3) and Power Commander V (PCV) threads with tips and tricks. Since this product looks to be a less expensive and possibly better alternative, I assume this will be a hot item and there will be many questions.
Please post anything you know about this product.
I just ordered my Dobeck Performance GEN 4 - AFR (Air Fuel Ratio) PLUS from Dillon at Dobeck Performance. I expect delivery in mid January. I went this route vs PCV/AT due to price and ease of use. I currently have a PCIII installed on my 2010 R3R installed by my dealer before I found out the limitations of the PCIII on 2010+ models. My goal is to get moderately more power, reduce exhaust temp, smooth out decel, and give me the ability to tune AFR on the fly for fuel economy on long trips. I have Wrapped Jardines and triple K&Ns. I will update when I get the AFR+ installed and tested. I am after cost savings, so dyno runs will not be in my future.
What I know so far:
gen 4 AFR+ for Rocket III is not currently on their site. Call Dillon at Dobeck at 1-877-764-3337.
Dobeck has a gen 2 (manually adjustable with screwdriver), gen 3 (pushbutton adjustable), gen 3.5 (same as gen 3 with ability to reduce fuel as well but not available for Rocket III), gen 4 AFR+ (same as gen 3 with an ARF gauge)
gen 4 AFR+ - $325 retail ($250 after military discount)
PCV - $380 ($315 on Revzilla.com) Auto Tune - $280 ($232 at Revzilla.com)
Savings over PCV/AT - $335 ($297 if you shop around and get discounts for both)
All gen 4 AFR+ are made to order currently. You can specify light grey or black face, white or orange needle, and black or chrome bezel.

- compare gen 2,3,4.
- understand AFR values.
- adjust gen 4 AFR+.
- AFR diagnostic mode.
You can use the gen 4 AFR+ to "Auto Tune" by entering into an O2 sensor closed loop. This is different from PC Auto Tune as this is AFR based not throttle position based.
