Power commander ????

[PR Spyder rt]

Need assistance in determining if I need a power commander or not my 2012 RT has the cat delete and the JT intake kit I just ordered a tailgunner exhaust pipe I am just asking if anyone has this setup or similar did you need a power commander my exhaust should be here by this saturday just trying to find out if I need to order a power commander so I could do it all at once thanks in advance for any advice you could give me

Maybe not?

I watched a video where you are told to start and run the Spyder for about 5 - 10 minutes (drive it around, put it through its paces), then shut it off and walk away (get the key away) for about 10 minutes. Then repeat a couple times. This gives nanny some chances to tweak things. This was for changing the muffler. Not sure if true, but I saw it on the Internet! Maybe try it now a few times before you put the muffler on, let nanny catch up gradually?

I have a friend with the aftermarket exhaust and stock air breather without the juice box. I believe with the air mod and the open exhaust you might want to get one. My wife's bike has the hmf exhaust with the juice box with stock air box. It is faster than my buddies bike. But my stock bike will hang with my wife and I am faster than my buddies also. I did remove the rubber pieces in front of the air box of my wife which gives it more air.

I have the yoshimura R77 pipe, JT air system with K&N filter, ram air, irridium plugs and high tension wires and no fuel controler...:yikes: but it is an RS manual :dontknow:

Thanks a bunch right now my spyder runs fine I was just worried about the tailgunner exhaust I read somewhere that it might need a pc if you install this exhaust in addition to cat delete and aftermarket intake bit thanks for your help...

That's what I have except I'm putting on a tailgunner widow maker exhaust so do you get any popping or missing

 

[Chupaca]

Depends....

There is some but pulling in the clutch and flipping the throttle clears the accumulated gases causing the backfire/popping. Don't know about the semi automatic but as far as the missing...none of that and it runs like a scalded ape...
