Thank you for making this video. It is going to help a ton when I get my PCV and plates. I just got my exhaust and Viper can from Marthy today! :D

I'm sure the Marty map will work better.... but I think he has one just for tbr

Depends on if you have pcv or jbp. Jbp doesn't have a connection to speed sensor like pcv. So you can't use adv gear maps with jbp. If you have pcv I've heard the adv gear works pretty much with all cans including tbr.

I can't imagine an aftermarket can that would affect flow so much you'd need to use a different map.

(example: Viper vs TBR vs M4 vs whatever)

Yeah, don't think so either. Just don't know 100% that it works with ALL cans. Disclaimer. LOL

If you have a Power Commander 5 and want to use an Adv Gear Map from Marthy (Martin). PCV allows each of the 6 gears to have its own map, but needs the speed sensor input to make that feature work. I have zero popping, but even a little wouldn't bother me. I loved the deep gurgle from my Z28 when I downshifted. Block offs will get rid of most if not all the popping on decel.

I didn't have a poping but did have sort of a "gargle" that I kinda liked. Mainly took place while slowing down .

Mine didn't go away either, but personally, I like it. Wish there was more! Take out the silencer, decel hard, sounds like a mini SRT4 rolling up to a light

Same here, no popping at all. Just the gurgle and I love it. Reminds me of my Ram's flowmaster. I'd love more!!!!!!

PCV Speed Sensor wire install on a FZ6R - YouTube

For those of use who are still left wondering how to install the speed sensor wire. Yes it is very simple but how to vids save you so much time and headache figuring things out so here is a VID (slideshow)

simply find the pink wire going to the 3 prong connector as you see in the vid and take it to the 3rd from the end connection on the PCV

Sure, no problem. Really easy to do. Just make sure to use 22-24 gauge wire.

I can't pick up the front. Any way to check if I have it flashed right? Maybe that's where all the gurgling comes from, maybe my wire isn't hooked up right????

Not sure, if you have a rear stand you can monitor each gear on your laptop. I know without a doubt that the marthy map/PCV made a huge difference in acceleration and throttle response. Not sure what would happen if the wire came disconnected. Maybe marthy could answer that.
