Took the bike into Projex yesterday for a remap (they use tune ecu, most other people I spoke to wanted to fit a power commander).
I had fitted a rotty airbox and the bike already had akros, and was running the standard akro map, fitting the box was an improvement but the fuelling obviously wasnt right, I tried Guy's map which seems to be recommended for this set up, it was better but didnt run very well below 3000rpm.
Took the bike for a spin last night and the new map is a big improvement, dyno was saying 109bhp with guy's map and finished up at 113bhp, obviously this doesnt tell the whole story as the biggest improvement was below 3000rpm where they reckoned it was running very rich.
Interestingly they had 2 990 SMRs in some time ago both with the same spec, remapped the first and then put that map onto the second and it was way out.
I guess the moral of the story is dont mess around with generic maps get the bike properly sorted, cost was under £200 which included removing the secondary butterflys.
