rockmeupto125 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 A Power Commander does not replace the ECU. It goes inline between the wiring harness and the ECU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srideaux Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Power Commander is not a true plug and play, on my 2001 Bird I added a new PC and a Tri Y exhaust ( unfortunately you cant get these anymore) new iridium plugs, and block off plates.on a Dinojet chassis Dynamometer It was possible to achieve 163 rear wheel horse power. dropping my primary sprocket down one tooth got me to 10sec. 1/4 mile times. My Busa buddies just hate it. The Power Commander is well worth the investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOXXIC Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 What is exhaust system is that on your bird? Not sure I've seen that header before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superhawk996 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Every Bird header I've paid attention to is tri-Y including the stocker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is like the old Ford Tri-Y, it mates close to the head though not sure about the Tri part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superhawk996 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 The tri-y headers that mate close to the head are done for ease of installation/clearance and low cost, not really great for performance. They're a low buck easy option to get something that's a little better flowing and much lighter than an iron log manifold. In cases where the stock manifold is super shitty anything will be an improvement, but compared to something like what's on the Bird they'd be a performance killer.

srideaux Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 This is a racing thin wall stainless steel equal length tube Tri Y pipe made by Micron Limited in England, with an optional Street Muffler. the US distributer told me they are out of business and this was in the last batch sent to the US.

Out of curiosity, do you have a photo of it off the bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon haney Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 A 163 HP at the rear wheel?! What else is done to the engine? Or maybe someone's dyno is very optimistic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
