i bought my 2003 xb9s, and i absolutely love it. the guy who had it before me, did some great mods to it. i have a custom muffler, close to the spec ops. but not quite the same. i was wandering, where can i find the race ecm for my 2003 xb9s? i need a website link or something. i already have the pipe i want to keep, and i already have the k&n filter... and how much extra power do you think i will be looking at? |

do i need to do anything to it, or is it just plug and play? |

you'll need a tps reset. best way thing to do is make an appt at a dealer for a tps reset, ride to the dealer with the stock ecu. change it in their parking lot, they reset tps, you ride happy. it's right under the seat on the s model. easy to get at. |

its not night and day difference and the difference in my opinion is neglegable I personally think the power band moved a bit and thats it. More towards the top end. It's not faster or getting more horsepower just the power is in a different spot if that makes sense. correct me if wrong but I have one and this is my feelings. Not sure I would say it's worth the money. I will put it this way if you don't have the money too blow don't. |

Do you want more power, or a faster bike? If it's power, then, don't expect to outrun anything larger than a 600 cc sportbike from a 900 cc twin. Sorry, but you can't bend the laws of physics. If you want a faster bike, then spend a few hundred for a track class. You'll make your friends 1000 cc sportbike eat humble pie at your local twisty road. You'll be a faster and safer rider. Race ECM does a nice job of smoothing the torque curve so it doesn't feel like you have a midrange hole (which is important for mid-corner acceleration), but there's no major increase in power. |

You're not going to outrun a 600cc sportbike even with the 1203 engine. Off the line for a bit, but you'll get passed like you're sitting still before you know it. Done it over and over and over and over with my buddies..... |

"you'll get passed like you're sitting still before you know it." Wow, I wonder how you'd describe being passed by a literbike repliracer? Exaggeration is not a dying art it seems. "If you want a faster bike, then spend a few hundred for a track class. You'll make your friends 1000 cc sportbike eat humble pie at your local twisty road. You'll be a faster and safer rider. " Now that is a true gem of wisdom. Any idiot can go fast in a straight line. |
