Here are the differences between ECU flashing and using a fuel controller.
Fuel Controller (power commander)
PROS
- tuning link and AFR changes are instantaneous (we see the changes in real time)
- robust and reliable (we have only seen 1 fail in 25 years)
- any suspected issue, simply unplug it
- expandable (quick shifter, ignition module, launch control, etc. can be added)
- available for virtually every bike (the odd exception exists)
CONS
- tunes AFR and ignition only (it can not remove restrictions, turn fan on earlier, etc.)
- power commanders are often $700+ (and you have not done anything yet)
- some newer power commanders have certain map restrictions for altering AFR
(although we know how to get around most of them)
ECU Flashing (woolich)
PROS
- allows access to everything
(alter fan temp, ETV maps, disable decel fuel, remove restrictions, etc.)
- no hardware purchase required (unless you prefer the on-bike harness)
- expandable (quick shifter, pit lane speed, launch control can be added)
CONS
- AFR change is not in real time
(alterations must be flashed then tested. uploads can take 5-10 minutes)
- not as reliable as power commander
(we have seen ourselves, and heard from others, the occasional flash failure)
- some older bikes not supported
Our History - been operating a dyno since 1996 (on our 3rd one now)
- factory trained at dynojet HQ in Las Vegas
- authorized dynojet tuning centre
- woolich certified for ecu flashing
- carburetor tuning – no problem (we are old enough and grew up with carbs)
Flashing starts at $300. Depending on required BIN file. Custom tuning starts at $375. Please reach out using the contact page and we will discuss details.
