Hello All,
I recently decided to dyno tune my bike. After consideration, i did not feel like sending my ecu out for a re flash. Instead i installed a PCV and took it to a local shop who works closely with STM motorsports (famous for tuning of EVO's, WRX, etc).
The guy was extremely knowledgeable, and was confident i would enjoy the final Product. One of the things ive noticed with those who got the ECU flashed was the removal of the dead spot up until 6k rpms. i mentioned that before the tune and he said he would not be able to tune that out as much as a flash would. He was right. the Bike hits HARD at 6k rpms but is still dead up until 6k. i know people mention that a dyno tune is ultimately better than a flash, but i would prefer this dead spot to disappear.
Is it true you cant tune out the dead spot with the PCV? With the flash, does it really take care of the dead spot as much as im assuming it does? Will i ultimately benefit more with the dyno tune, or flash?
thank in advance
