Hey guys, I'm looking at a pair of Arrow slip-ons for a 2000 M900ie. If I only change the slip-ons, without doing any airbox mods or aftermarket air filter, do I need to do anything with the ECU or run a Power Commander or anything like that?
Thanks!
Nope.
Not bringing in enough extra air to warrant it.
Lots of good info HERE (http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=48432.0).
I put an arrow full system (both mid-pipes and cans - not just slip-ons) on my old S2R 800 without a problem at all. No reflashing the ECU or PC solution required. Ran great and the sound and look was MUCH better than stock!
From what I remember of previous discussions on this issue - the only time you will need a new map is if you upgrade both ends of the "air pump" (aka, engine), the air filter AND the exhaust. This gets rid of both bottle-necks in the air flow, and will very likely require a remapping of the ECU. That's my interpretation based on memory - so hopefully others can confirm/correct me on this one.
Awesome.
Thanks for the quick replies, now I know what mod is next!

Pretty much.
Uncorking the exhaust is fine as long as it's still breathing in through a straw.
Open up the intake and you'll need to do something to increase fueling or risk running dangerously lean.
