• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Fast by Ferracci PCIII or PCV?

Tepco

Husqvarna
AA Class
So my head is spinning searching for info on how to get my bike running right. Here are the questions I cant find.

1. On my 08 SMR510 can I adjust the TPS with the PCIII or PCV?

2. Fast by Ferracci has a map for my 510 that I've only heard good things about, but is the PCV better?

3. Do either the PCIII or PCV control the ignition curve?

4. If I by a PCIII or PCV used can I find the FBF map to load into it?

Thanks for you answers.

My newly acquired 08 TE610 was originally sourced from Ferracci.

The PO took it to Ferracci for slight surging and all they put on the receipt was an Iridium spark plug.
I unknowingly talked with Eraldo himself after buying the bike to see if the dealership had any "tuning" records on
the bike from when it was sold new. He was going to send any info to me but so far no emails.

He admitted they tune out "any factory leaness" before sale on all their bikes. I don't know what software they use but for supposedly being OEM I think my bike rips. No hesitation right off idle, no surging, just wheel spinning Brap.
No PU kit. Original can.

I haven't gotten an IBeat on it yet to see the settings but it will be interesting to see the ECU set up and/or fuel
mileage might give me a hint. If OEM and simply tweeked with Ibeat, I can just imagine what the tuner will do.
I don't think I want much more.
The bike is in the mountain garage and I won't get back to it until April.

Ferracci knows how to tune...........but we don't hear much about them.

How would you get that map from them?
 
The magical part about the PCV, is that it is newer and can be used with the Autotune module - which works fantastic, it creates the map for you. Because of that, I would think, that the re-sale value would be much higher on the PCV than the PCIII. But the PCIII certainly works. Neither of those products do anything with the ignition curve, they simply adjust the size of the pulse width to the injector.

I vaguely recall something about the PCIII and PCV maps being incompatible, but I'm reasonably sure you could read the FBF map, and translate that to a PCV by visually examining the file.

Personally I would go with a PCV with Autotune, or check out the JD unit.

All that was off the top of my head, for more information from me search for my other posts in the EFI forum, especially about testing the 2008/9 bikes - it has been years since I've done any efi work.
 
I have also heard to get an 09 or newer ECU they are more adjustable through Ibeat... Been wondering the the same thing myself, but what ecu has the most power stock? Would think anything street legal would be choked up and any MX/Enduro bikes would be more aggressively tuned from factory.. Any input on this Cofee?

Nope. All the work I did was years ago, I've no idea.
