I just called....delivery April 15..........284.00...More Power...888-438-3939, no sales tax, free shipping.....so that sounds pretty reasonable to me....Brock with discount is 353.94, with 20.94 shipping charges, included in above pricing.

Brock's mapping goes to 12K RPMs to work with an extended ECU... cheap stuff only goes to 11K.

goldwingmann only posted pricing, bently wants to find out about the cheaper version of the pcv, maybe you can help him with that.

I think fuel moto has them for 279. If you bought your pipe from Brock you still get his map even if you didn't buy the PC from him. I think?

Just trying to have Brock clear up if there is actually two different pcv's or just one? some guys will have there bike custom tuned but if Brock has a special pcv that goes 1000 rpms higher some guys might want to know that. if it's just his map then some may get it somewhere else and have there tuner tune it to 12000 rpms. His post just wasn't clear to me as goldwinman posted about a pcv price and brock called it cheap.

There is one PC V for the 14r. Brocks map along with the extended ecu will go to a higher rpm

Doesn't the ECU mod just add another 500 rpm to the top end and let the motor rev a bit higher for about 375.00? The PC is another 285.00 to $353.00 on top of the ECU, so we are talking ab out the electronic upgrades of about $725.00 total.....is that a good ball park figure for these two electronic boxes?
About how much HP do these two mods together give the Brock piped ZX14r?

Well Brocks post sure makes it sound like a pcv bought else where is a cheap one, goldwingmann said nothing about mapping. thought maybe Brock had dynojet make him a special pcv that could not be bought elsewhere. reason I wonder is in the past I always bought my pwr comander else where and still used Brocks maps because I bought his exhaust.

The Ecu flash can up the rev where ever you want it, it also takes the 186 speed limiter off and adds timing and opens the flies earlier.
I bought my PC V from Dynojet and I will be using Brocks maps

I was thinking of removing my flies over this weekend..as Brock recommends them to be removed as opposed to leaving them stock. I don't think I will ever get to see the 186 mph on my speedo, as there aren't many roads here in Central Florida that allow running that speed and a safe shut down area.
I would like the idea of no restrictions on the stock factory speedo.....I will probably never need it, but just like owning a .44 Magnum...nice to know it is there!
I am not planning on racing this bike, I already know what speed capabilities that are built into it from the factory. I just want to have a fully capable bike and be able to run it up once in a while to feel that great power...!

for the most part your dealing with programming....down loading firmware into a module.parameters will be changed one way or another.this is where the r & d comes in that brock and others research.you could try for a year and still not get it as good as these guys.you may still want to get a custom map made using brocks as the starting point...remember time is money and research hopefully gets recouped on the back side.support brock cause he`s got us covered. getum while they are hot................

I plan on using Brock mapping since it comes with my pipe....he is the authority in making his pipes make HP and that is what we all want here. I don't think we could improve on his mapping at the local level cause most guys on a dyno don't know what they are doing, so you would get less than satisfactory results at the home level.
Brock squeezes every ounce of HP out of his PC's for all of us to enjoy..and there is no need to try to re-invent the wheel...when he is driving......!

Never heard of Jeffo, oh my! You just send him $50 and tell him about your bike and he magically makes a map for you, voilà!
