    While tracing down a problem on my bike I removed the front fairing and found I have a NON stock ECM I'm assuming? It says for race use only on it.

    Questions I'm having are...
    I have a stock exhaust but a k&n filter and Swiss cheesed air box. Also the exhaust valve mod. Is this enough to justify the ECM? Or do I really need a muffler other than stock?

    Any extra opinions /options/info is appreciated!

    So what do I need to do or can I do without spending a grip of money? Detune it?

    Should run fine, might be a bit fat in the fuel dept. Wont have every ounce of power it could have.

    Can it be tuned with ecmspy to get back some power and fuel mpg?

    no ecmspy on a race only module, it will brick it up and be unusable.

    What year and engine size is the bike?, I might still have a stock ecm laying around.
    Custom tuning will generally outshine a race only ecm if your pretty knowledgeable at it. I run a race only ecm on my xb9 with race exhaust and open airbox.

    yes it can, get ecmspy and read the tuning guide. you could sell the race ecm and get a stock ecm and tune it even
