Dynatek EFI Fuel Controller

Just wondering if anyone has this particular fuel management system and how you like it. Also what are the PRO's CON's if you know against the others Cobra, Techlusion , etc.

Thanks for any info, just planning which one I'm going to upgrade too and wanted input from those who have it or alternatives.

I personally have the Cobra FI2000R and really like the way it has worked.

Most on here seem to have the Doebeck TFI or Cobra FI2000R. Pretty much all will do the job for you.

I would go with the plug and play version in whatever you decide to go with.

I had read many articles here regarding the Fuel Processors and how well they work. I finally gave in and purchased a Doebeck TFI. It made a tremendous difference in the performace of the bike.
I'm sure that both Cobra and Doebeck systems have their pros and cons. I was able to install the Doebeck TFI by myself with help from others in this forum. The Doebeck TFI is a plug & play unit which is a great feature. I believe the Cobra FI200R costs a little bit more than the Doebeck. It's just a matter of personal choice.

Thanks for the info, appreciate it. I'll look at those 2 and decide which is the better value for me.

Thanks for the input. On checking there website, I would say that the Cobra is a bit cheaper, but still looking to find the best price I can. Several on e-bay. For sure will get the plug n play unit as it is the easiest to reverse should I ever want to.
Great input, when I saw this unit hadn't heard mention of it on here, like the Techlusion (Doebeck) or the Fi2000 (Cobra).

I think they both offer plug n play now so that's good.

Another option is the Kuryakyn "Wild Thing" http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/129...tor-Controller
It is manufactured by Doebeck Performance, and is the exact same thing, just in different colored cloths. , and you can usually find it for less than the Cobra or the TFI. I don't know if it comes in a plug-n-play though.

Thanks for the input. Actually this one is about the same price as the other 2 prior mentioned. Even though it is made by the company that makes the Techlusion. Also I researched and so far it only comes with the scotchbrite connectors to splice into your existing wiring. I don't want to do that if possible so it's not just plug n play. So if I didn't like it, then I can't simply remove it. So for about the same price I'd rather have the plug n play model. However I appreciate the info, the more options the better. And cheaper price is always nice
I'll keep looking, but the website says only splice but maybe they'll make some changes to that ???
