Commander Kits

Post by StuMiller »

How good are they?
Are they worth the coin?
Better to use them on the street or track?
Other thoughts?

I have one on my 10... can't say I can tell the difference because I bought it with it already fitted, so my post is kinda useless I guess.

everything I've been told though is that it's necessary to have one when you have a full exhaust system to compensate for the freebreathing of the engine, which sounds legit to me. Definitely would be handy on the track though since you can modify stuff quickly with a laptop (assuming you know what you are doing... which I don't)

if you have a aftermarket exahust you probably will be wanting one as when i had akra exhaust (skip on) it felt like the air fuel mixture wasnt right and had lost alot of down low grunt which the stock pipe had. Got a custom map done on the dyno with power commander, more torque in lower revs where i basically am most of the time on the road which is good. With new filter 170.5hp at the wheel :D
Let the good times roll.

Well i took the baffles out the yoshi cans on my Z1000 and lost a fair chunk of power, so ordered my PC3 last night should be here in a few days, then i will let ya know! sorry not a 10, but guess its the same principle.

Fark 170hp, sheeeesh :D
