Yoshimura EMS
I've read nothing on the Yoshimura box other than vague posts of "troubles". Anybody else have one? The instructions suck but since I usually only look at instructions after I mess something up that was not a problem.
Fact #1) It was very easy to install and plug in with its harness, no butchering of the stock harness.
Fact #2) It comes with 6 maps. One map is a zero map, no changes.
Fact #3) It only came with fuel maps.
Fact #4) Each fuel map is in reality 3 maps. The baseline or ideal as tested (for that system) map as well well as a +5% and a -5% map. The software has a button for choosing which of the 3 maps is the default map. So, even without a 3-way switch maps can be altered very quickly with a laptop.
Fact #5) With 5 fuel maps and their +5% and -5% counterparts a total choice of 15 fuel maps!
Fact #6) With the 3-way switch I have 9 maps to choose from. Only 3 at a time can be the default map. Say you choose 3 separate maps, A,B and C. You could pick, switch position: #1 Baseline A map, #2 -5% B map, #3 +5% C map or any combination thereof. Think of it, an economy map, performance map or nitrous map at the flip of a switch. If one map is ideal, then switch position: #1 -5%, #2 baseline, #3 +5% for rapid changes in the fuel map due to weather conditions or even altitude changes.
Fact #7) It only came with fuel maps! But I downloaded the latest maps from the web site, maybe they include a timing map. I'll check later today.
Fact #8) Each fuel map has a timing map, 15 separate fuel maps, 5X3=15, 15 zero timing maps just begging to be used. Or, the same timing map could be used for all fuel maps.
I'll probably get around to programing the 3-way switch today but my main concern is timing maps. What timing changes for your 12, with what modifications and a PCIIIr? For simplicity I've made one map with 2.5 degrees advance accross the board. Same as using a timing advance plate or modifying the stock pick-up. Another map I adapted was Muzzy's race map for the 12. Any thoughts???? I'm using the fuel map for my Duplex race system. I kept the zero timing map for the -5% fuel map. Used the 2.5 degree advance map for the baseline fuel map and the Muzzy's race timing map for the +5% map.

I've been playing with it a little. Without any map, the 12 will not start, much less run. With the zero map installed it started and ran just like before the EMS. This was with a 100 RPM idle lope and sluggish response to throttle. I didn't leave it this way long.

A friend of mine has one on his GSXR 1000 and he likes it.

The only map I've played with yet is the default map for my exhaust system with an across the board 2 degree advance timing map. Revs like a two-stroke now. No stumble, hiccup, sluggishness or hesitation to small blips of the throttle. I'm expecting increased HP, I did not expect better low RPM response.
