Can the dealership remapp the 700? I just wonderedif they could so that I wouldnt need to get a powercommander.

 

Try a Dobeck Performance TFI controller. It uses stock mapping and you adjust the pulse width for thr mods you have. Kind of like jetting. Only once it is dialed in the stock mapping compensates for everything else.

 

So, what's the difference between the Dobeck and Power Commander? I rode with a guy who had the Power Commander this weekend in the sand, lid was off, baffle removed with a different sparky inserted and that ran like greased lightning, kicking azz on modded 450's and Predies.

 

I would think aslo that the commander would be a little better with the different maps.

 

They each have their Pros and Cons.
The TFI uses stock mapping( Which Yamaha spent a lot of R&D on) and is easily adjustable while out riding, no laptops cables software etc.
The Power commander is a great unit, but cost 150.00 more. Its biggest advantage is its ability to customize maps for specific needs.

Whatever you buy you will be happy with the results.

I am Running a LRD Pipe with the TFI and a GYTR air filter. The diffrence is amazing, It no longer has the midrange hit it moved it down to initial take off. It pulls harder from right out of the hole.
I ran @ LS Utah this weekend and beat up on a few YFZ's a Couple of piped Shees, 450Rs, and a couple of well worked Raptors. of course a few of them beat me up too.

 

Air, how does your 700R pull in 5th gear? Mine goes like hell from 2nd gear launch thru 3rd and 4th pullin hard all the way and just lays down in 5th. On a short drag mine is hell on wheels but she falls short on the top end WOT in 5th. I'm working on a custom fuel map right now to see if I can make this thing pull like it should in 5th gear. I may drop it a tooth on the front as well.
Also for those still deciding which programer to get You can make adjustments right at the Power commander box, like the Dobeck it has that option[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

It was a little Lazy on top of 5th. I have not ran WOT in 5th since I added the TFI and Pipe.
It is like Yamaha put in a close ratio 4 speed trans and added a tall overdrive.

The TFI or power commander comes down to a price versus features issue neither 1 is right for everyone.
I just know I have put less than $640.00 in mods and have beat quite a few machines up sand mountain that have more money invested in their machine than I do. Quad price included.
