HealTech FI Tuner

Just got a Fuel Injection controller unit. Cost about RM700 and it is a BLAST!

Easy to install. Should take about 1 hr (read the manual at least 3x as I wrongly cut the TPS and RPM lines - run the procedure through your mind at least once). 20minutes to get to the point when u start to splice the connection. 20 minutes to get the connections fixed up and 20 minutes to route and tie up loose ends. The unit will sit on the standard ECM at 1/3rd the size of the PC5.

Improves overall acceleration especially at 4K-6K RPM. Eliminates lean mixture in this RPM range caused naturally by the aftermarket exhaust and air filter (R77 Yoshimura and DNA airfilter). Seat of the pants horsepower increase of at least 5-10hp along with a crisp throttle feeling.
It makes overtaking feels twice quicker and you tend to ride like a maniac on trunk roads. Strong pull even at 1 gear position higher than normal.

Minus point - higher fuel consumption at least 30% more. I found this out during the ride today. Thats why the next feature it offers is handy. 3 maps, selectable with full, half and no throttle twist in "ON" ignition pos'n. I chose the zero map and used less gas on the way home.
All this comes unoptimized. My next plan is to Dyno Tune it at Sunway Cycle.

  2. Yes - to go without PC5 is a brave new world. My next contender will surely be you :-)
