V&H tuner versus screamin eagle

    Looking at a tuner now that ive updated pipes air etc. Speaking to local HD dealer today who of course recommended the Screamin Eagle.  I have read a lot of success stories re the V&H tuner and was wondering is the extra bucks for the Sreamin Eagle one worth it?  

    HD tell me all the other tuners basically run as an interference to the ECU and the eagle one doesnt. ie fit it, flash it and put it away whereas the V&H stays on the bike.  

    Just after some thoughts from you guys in the know.  I am relatively new to it all and learning as I go.  Happy to hear comments regarding other tuners as well V&H just seem very popular.

    The bike is an 07 softail, V&H 2 into 1 big radius, Screamin eagle stage 1 air cleaner will probably be what i fit so i can use the original fatboy cover.  

    Thoughts and advice appreciated.  I did search the sight but couldnt find a comparison.

    Stay away from the piggy-back modules like V&H.

    Thanks for the info.  I just had a look at the power vision site and they seem to be the goods.

     paulybronco pardon my ignorance but I take it you deal in parts etc.  what is one of these going to set me back?

    Sorry paulybronco for the confusion.  They certainly do look like a good tuner and I may well track one down I think.  Thanks for the offer of help and I will buy you that beer one day.  ??

    Hi Binnsy,
    There are 2 ways to have a Power Vision. The 1st is to buy your own module. (Rec retail $590 )
    The 2nd way is buy a Power Vision Licence Key. We are a Power Vision Key dealer and can help you with that as well. $250
    If you would like to auto tune though you will have to buy a module. If you would like to have your bike Dyno tuned you can use either way. You will get the same result.
    Cheers,
    Brian.
