What I said on December 14, 2010 is still holds true:

Quote
Jim, HD-DUDE, replaced the Daytona Twin Tech III on my '07 FLHTCUSE2 with the new EMS from Rev Performance last Saturday. The bike now runs as good as it has ever run! Gone are the random hard starts (especially when the bike was hot), occasional backfires, and other TT III anomalies.

My riding pattern has been short freeway commute trips (25 miles each way), and some rides around town. I have had no issues and have had consistent, reliable operation. In short - the bike runs better than ever. I am very happy that I replaced the Twin Tech III with the Rev Performance EMS.

My experience has been the same.  Regular use and no issues.  So far it just works. 

That's one of those things that doesn't sound high praise but it actually is.

With some of our projects, simply saying "it works" is a huge compliment. 

Given some of our previous experiences with alternate tuning devices of the past, and given some of our previous experiences with unqualified dyno operators, I think this experience qualifies as huge, so far...

Too true Scott.  So much of the stuff we see really doesn't work as advertised or promised.  Or it takes so much effort and expense after the fact to make it work even reasonably well that, given any kind of reasonable alternative, it really shouldn't be worth the bother.

So, yeah, to say "it just works" is simple but high praise.  The proof of the pudding is always in the eating of course.  I'm curious to watch this hardware work through the summer even among the small cohort we've got here.  So far I'm willing to be optimisitic though.  Looking foward to more time in service.

Installed mine last week in stock engine. No ping so far just 200 miles but I will be in AZ next week for 2000 miles and maybe Fullsac baffles. the bike is smooth  and full power from the beginning. My  dealer is interested in my findings.    So far great.  Will Dyno again when I get back   billy

So far, I love it!  Bike runs great.

Pulled the plugs about 200 miles after the install, they both look identical.  See the attached picture.
