Alright I got the Hindle full system CF can and power commander with Brocks latest map. Took the secondaries out because several of you said the bike runs great with out a map.. Wrong mine runs like pure shit! And I can tell that it is way to lean in places and to rich in others.. Why is everyone saving it runs better?? I need a map or I"m putting them back in... Map anyone???


To me, that indicates the Hindle system is scavenging like a good pipe should. Get 'er mapped for your setup and you should have one sweet 14 to cruise around on!

At this point, would it be safe to say that since I've installed cans and probably already leaned my bike out a bit from that change, that I should not remove the plates until I go the PC route?

I wouldn't if it was me....I am already wonderin if puillng the plates is making the motor run any leaner now...I may just re-install till im 100% sure

maybe at WFO they run great
maybe even a gain on a real dyno

the injectors that work with those plates
are controlled byt the ecu

that no less is monitoring
air mass vacuum.....throttle position

what throttle position.....YOU TOOK THEM OUT

SO HOW IS THE ECU SUPPOSED TO GIVE THOSE INJECTORS THE CORRECT info !?!?!?!?

WITTH AN AFTERMARKET ECU OR MAYBE THE POWER COMMANDER
CAN COMPENSATE FOR that large of a change
im sure it could be fixed

no doubt on a dragrace bike
that need NO midrange & an air shifter
thats wide open 98% percent of the time

but a street bike

The map I recieved has the bike running way to lean as well. I think
it has to do with different areas with different temps as well as humidity.
Not to mention that every bike is a tad different. After you get your map
straight and away from that leaness I believe it will run a bit cooler. I am
hoping so as my Kawi Turbo did just that. Not to mention if you get a map
and it's for a Cali 14 and not the 48 state 14 then you have a problem as
well. So check your model and get some where close to where you live if
you can. After mapping and tuning my 14 I would be more then happy if I
got 170RWHP anything above is just a plus. Im trying to keep my hopes
in check this way I'm not disappointed. Good luck to everyone trying to
get your mapping in check.
