Then again, I didn't start this build with any delusions thinking I'm the tuner of the year.

Or perhaps I would be like Chris?

Trust me, after all the money I have invested in this build I can only wish to hell I had just contacted either Hillside or Randy...

I could of had well past a 131" at this point and I wouldn't of wasted my time & money trying to use a system I'm fully not qualified (as a genius) to play with.

If I could find a shop that COULD tune a TCFI IID or any DTT product within 150 miles of my house you can bet your ass this nightmare would of been there last year!

Thank goodness there are others on this forum that understand this system and are willing to help out us simpletons...

Every shop near me swears by the SERT & if I hadn't invested so much damn money you can bet I would switch over to a SERT in a heartbeat...

(If I can find a used ECU from an 01 softail for a good price I STILL might bite the bullet and switch to a SERT)
FL.... well said.. and I agree with you... I still have my sert and the ecm that goes with it.. I would have to go back to the stock throttle body but then that sure wouldnt bother me at all at this point.
I am especially pissed because I have done every thing that Chris tells you to do to get the optimum performance out of their system... dual intake and dual exhaust of a certain type and even brand name stuff..

Anyway I have a question,
What would happen if you just blocked off the IAC unit and used the throttle stop screw like a idle set screw.... I know you would have to leave the IAC attached to the wiring harness but the computer wouldnt know the difference. It would still screw the IAC screw in and out but the throttle plates would control the idle.
then it wouldnt matter what you set the idle parameter at and I think it would just go straight to the idle that you have set with the set screw...

does this all make sense or am I just full of POOOOOOOOO?
