I don't know....sounds right though, I'm just repeating what I gleaned from your post about the pc advanced mode, you can trim % or map each cylinder independently, there seems to be a lot of versatility to that little device...I wish I knew more, but willing to share what little I do know. :lol:

I'll give this another go.
Dynojet no longer has all the old software versions for download on their site (reqd for us to invert the tps signal settings) but a quick phone call and the man says he'll send them in an email.
But then after explaining why I wanted old versions he stated the new versions will allow it too because the '14 Harley Touring also has a 5-0v tps like ours. Cool.
Side note - what's this Harley tps look like? Can we use it as a viable replacement when ours die? I mean - we'd never want to infect our beloved gpzs with Harley parts but what the heck, I'm already using Cadillac fuel pumps. :D

edit: old file versions received. Dynojet cust svc has always been pretty good. A quote from the tech: "I was able to locate that version, after all… I just had to check with the oldest guy in the department (he saves EVERYTHING)" Haha. Old packrat dudes are the best!

sweet .
the latest software should accommodate our backwards tps. If not I have the old versions saved to disk and can email them.

Awesome I think this would be a good how to once it is figured out.

Why are you connecting to the TPS?

Didn't God just originally intend it to work that way? Won't it work betterfor a street bike if iit's tied to the tps and has a map sensor attached to the analog input for boost reference? I always thought we attached the Grey wire to the boost sensor because we had no choice (our tps wasn't compatible).

No we attached it to the boost sensor because that is the main load. Boost has much more effect than throttle. But as long as you are referencing boost separately that's fine :D

i think you may have misunderstood.
power commanders were designed to optimise fuelling and pick up a few horsepower ,we want to use them to liberate whole teams of horses
the wire is connected to boost because thats the changing factor we want to control fuel for , not throttle position.nothing to do with incompatibility of the tps at all.
as i understand it:
the pc5 with boost sensor add on is more like a standalone efi for an aspirated bike with an added turbo,it adds boost compensation where non previously existed.
our bikes already have a boost map ,it just stops increasing injector duration at 16psi or over i think..
using a powercommander allows us to add injector duration above this point, or at least enlarge injectors and reduce duration for the lower portion of the boost,effectively increasing the fuel available at higher boost without over fueling at lower levels.

i thought those that wanted to use a pc5 were mainly after the autotune facility , and i would be interested to know if it worked alongside the original kawasaki ecu.

Thanks for that.
I get it. I'll spend more time on the AutoTune and try to finish what I started.
