Title: DesmoTimes Powercard
Post by: dklay on September 07, 2009, 12:22:58 PM
Anyone using one ? I've seen plenty of posts/ threads re. powercommanders, DP Ecu's, and Ecu flashing, etc.. but virtually nothing on the DT Powercard. Seems like a very reasonably priced solution for minor injection cleanup/ tuning. Any replies specifically in regard to an S2R800 (mine's '06) would be appreciated.

I have the Techlusion TFI on my M800.  The TFI is similar to, but a little less adjustable than, the Powercard.  I picked it up new for $190.  It has made a remarkable difference in my bike's performance.  Let me reiterate: remarkable.  Even the exhaust tone is better, more powerful-sounding.  I believe that the 800 motors with the stock 5.9 ECU run too lean across the rpm range, and power is lost as a result.

Neither a PC nor a dyno is necessary for tuning the TFI or Powercard.  It's similar to setting up a carbureted motor.  No doubt a Power Commander can extract more performance, but I'm very happy with this TFI.  YMMV.

I have one on my '04 Multistrada (Monstrada). It's a 1000DS engine, not closed loop. It helped when I added an exhaust system, by allowing me to add in a bit more fuel.

some stuff i've written about it. relates to the older style 1047ST, but the power card is a similar variation i believe.
