Hi Guys,
Just after a little direction. I've got my bike in for a service today & have had my arm twisted on possibly getting a Power Commander V installed while it's in the shop, however I've got two companies I'm looking at to do the job, who are down the road from each other, and they are both saying they've installed PCV's on GSXS' previously (I know for sure at least one of them has & the other is a Suzuki dealer themselves so..), however both are outlining different things to do whilst installing it. Just after some clarification whether they're full of s*^t or not
. By the way, my main aim by installing the PCV is to remove/reduce the throttle snatch (if/where possible) and improve the throttle control at slow speeds, not unlike other issues heard before. The comments from both are as follows;
First installer (Suzuki dealer) recommends installing the PCV with the standard map from Dynojet as the stock exhaust is still fitted and that any gains or benefit from custom mapping would be negligible because they can't properly install a sniffer into the standard exhaust, meaning they won't get proper dyno results. They said that until I fit an a complete aftermarket exhaust, they wouldn't run on a dyno and that the standard map would be an improvement. They also recommend at the same time removing the set-valve altogether and installing a Healtech exhaust servo eliminator.
The second installer operates a dyno & is an actual Dynojet distributor. They have recommended installing the PCV & custom mapping on their dyno to achieve best results. They also mentioned about having to block off the pair valve also. They wouldn't need to remove the set valve they believe.
Although I'm waiting on the Suzuki dealer to give me an accurate quote, from what he was talking the pricing between the two won't be overly different. I'm just looking for any advice anyone can give me for what these guys have told me & also if there's anything additional I should do when installing the PCV.
Cheers!
