I'm considering purchasing a pc5 for the sole reason of not having to make a trip to and pay for a dyno every time I make a change to the bike.
Will the pc5 w/autotune kit build a new map for me after every change to the motor is done? For example, adding a cam, getting a bored TB, etc.
You dno't actually have the auto tune hooked up all the time. You should take it off when not using it so you don't burn up the o2 sensor... So.. Every time you do a change, Then you'd take the plug out of the bung, put the o2 sensor in and do a new read. :thumbs:
Hmmm. Are there any disadvantages to doing this instead of getting a dyno tune? Seems like this would be extremely cost effective for me since I just can't leave things alone! :lol:
Not to high jack your thread - but has anyone considered threading the stock head to fit an 02 sensor into it? (between the exhaust ports in the head is a good place to do it).
Maybe this wouldnt give a good enough reading - and it needs to be downstream in the exhaust?

Plus, that would be an expensive ass mod. Best to do the pipe, that is fixable if you f**k it up.

Wideband O2 sensor should be placed 12-14 inches away from the engine head as a minimum.
the exhaust gases temperatures are extremely hot and harmful to the sensor.
but in our Raptors, it shouldn't be placed any further than 14 inches from the head to overcome the reversion effects of a single cylinder motor
