.
OVERVIEW
Twin Tuner II P/N 16203 is for 2002-2015
Harley-Davidson
®
V-Rod™ motorcycles with fuel injected VRSC engines. P/N 16203 is the same as the standard Twin Tuner II except that that RPM range has been extended. You can easily adjust your fuel injection and ignition timing to match the requirements of performance parts including high compression pistons/heads, camshafts, free flowing exhausts, and low restriction air filters. You can add or subtract fuel.
You can retard ignition timing up to 10 degrees.
The Twin Tuner II also has an advanced mode, where you can use the optional USB interface and PC
Link Tuner software to make precise fuel and ignition adjustments. You can make independent fuel trim adjustments to the front and rear cylinders.
The Twin Tuner II works great in combination with our Twin Scan II Plus tuning aid. You can directly export calculated fuel correction data to Twin Tuner II data files. The system can be used for tuning on a dyno or under actual riding conditions on a closed course or race track.
Installation takes only 10-15 minutes and is very easy, with no splicing, cutting, crimping, or bulky interconnections. All access is at the Delphi ECM. Just remove seven wires from the ECM connector, insert these wires into our small mating connector, insert seven new wires from the Twin Tuner II into the ECM connector, and connect one ground wire. The unit is completely encapsulated and impervious to moisture.
With a very low profile of only ½” and occupying a fraction of the space required by competitive products, you won’t have a problem finding a place to mount the unit.

ADVANCED TUNING
The Twin Tuner II also has an advanced mode, where you can use the optional USB interface and
Windows software to check and observe system operation (Tuner Log) and make precise fuel and ignition adjustments (PC Link Tuner).
CAUTION: You must use PC Link Tuner
Version 5.0 or higher and Tuner Log
Version 3.0 or higher software with the
Twin Tuner II VR.
PC REQUIREMENTS
The Twin Tuner II connects to your PC by means of an optional USB interface (P/N 18014) that is also used with our other engine controls. The PC must have a free USB port. If you have an older PC without
USB capability, you cannot use the advanced tuning capability.
We recommend a laptop PC with Pentium processor and super VGA display (SVGA with 1024 x
768 pixel resolution) running Windows XP/Vista/7/8.
Data display is graphics intensive and a high speed
Pentium processor is recommended. Processors slower than 300 MHz will exhibit sluggish program loading and response. The PC must have a CDROM drive for program loading.
PC Link Tuner software includes print commands to print downloaded data. The program has een tested with Hewlett-Packard laser and inkjet printers and Epson inkjet printers. We recommend using a color inkjet printer.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
The software is supplied on CDROM media or in the form of a compressed file downloaded from our website. The installation process uses InstallShield.
This industry standard installer is based the new
Microsoft Windows Installer service that greatly reduces potential problems such as version conflicts and allows for application self-repair.
There are two programs to install: Tuner Log and
PC Link Tuner. Start by installing Tuner Log. If you are downloading software from the web, only download and install one program at a time. Before proceeding with installation, shutdown any other applications that may be running. For Windows Vista, you must disable the User
Account Control (UAC) during installation. If you are not familiar with the UAC, please refer to the Vista
UAC Tech Note on our website's Tech FAQ for details.
Use the Windows Explorer or the Run command from the Windows Start Menu to launch setup.exe in the
Tuner_Log folder on the CDROM or the setup.exe file downloaded from our website. InstallShield will install the software in an appropriate folder under Program Files.
Repeat the installation process for PC Link Tuner.
Use the Windows Explorer or the Run command from the Windows Start Menu to launch setup.exe in the
PC_Link_Tuner folder on the CDROM or the setup.exe file downloaded from our website. InstallShield will install the software in an appropriate folder under Program
Files.
Once InstallShield has completed the installation, Tuner Log and PC Link Tuner will appear on the Windows Start Menu. You can then launch them just as you would any other Windows program.
PC Link Tuner software requires the Monospace
821 BT fixed pitch printer font in order to properly align columns when printing. The Monospace 821 BT font is included in the distribution media and automatically copied to your Windows Fonts folder during installation. A backup copy is also placed in the program folder. If you accidentally delete this font, use the Install New Font command from the Fonts folder
File menu. The filename associated with Monospace
821 BT is monos.ttf.
TWIN TUNER II CONNECTION
Follow the instructions supplied with the optional
USB interface to install the required USB drivers and configure the COM port. Once you have configured a
COM port number for your new USB Interface, make sure that you use this same COM port selection in the
Tuner Log and PC Link Tuner software. Use the
“TC88A AND ALL OTHERS” switch setting.
An adapter harness is supplied with the USB
Interface for use with the Twin Tuner II. Connect the alligator clip on the black wire to ground and the
Packard Weather Pack connector to the mating connector on the brown wire from the Twin Tuner II.
Turn the ignition key and engine run/stop switch on to provide power to the system. Do not start the engine if you want to download or upload data with PC
Link Tuner.
TUNER LOG SOFTWARE
When the engine is running, you can display real time engine data on an instrument panel type screen as shown in Figure 6 by using the View Real Time
Data command on the View menu.
You can also check proper operation of the throttle position sensor (TPS) when the run/stop switch is on (engine not running). Rotate the throttle through the full range of motion. The TPS% value should go from zero to 100%.
Real time engine data is displayed on an instrument panel type layout with a round tach gauge and bar graph type gauges for all other parameters.
Status messages are displayed in a separate window.
If the engine is not running, most values will appear as zero or off.
Displayed parameters include:
RPM – engine crankshaft RPM (numeric value displayed beneath gauge)
TPS – throttle position (0 to 100%)
FRONT INJ PW, REAR INJ PW – injector pulse width in milliseconds (pulse width commanded by ECM before fuel trim by Twin Tuner II)
FRONT FUEL%, REAR FUEL% – fuel trim in percent (0% means no change)
RETARD – ignition retard in degrees
BAT – battery voltage
STATUS – engine running status and basic mode (switch settings used to trim fuel) or advanced mode (PC Link Tuner tables used to trim fuel)

EDITING 3D TABLE DATA
You can edit front and rear cylinder fuel trim and ignition retard tables. Before you can edit one of these tables you must either open a data file or download data from a Twin Tuner II unit. Numeric data is always edited on the spreadsheet grid. The tables are accompanied by 3D graphs that help visualize the data.
Each table consists of 22 rows from 1,000 to
9,500 RPM and 9 throttle position columns from 0% to
100%. The 9,500 RPM value is used at all higher RPM levels.
After you have edited a table, you must use the
Save Table Edits To Buffer command from the Edit menu to save your edits to buffer memory. If you use the Close Table command from the Edit menu, all your edits are lost.
Front and Rear Cylinder Fuel Trim Tables
The fuel trim values in these tables are only active if advanced mode is selected. You can enter fuel trim values from -20% to +30% in every cell. Unless

you have specific experience in trimming individual cylinders and the associated fuel distribution problems, we suggest that you use the same values for both front and rear cylinders. You can edit a table for the front cylinder. After saving the table edits to buffer memory, you can use the Copy Front Cylinder Trim to Rear command from the Edit menu to quickly copy the entire table.
Figure 8 – Typical Front Cylinder Fuel Trim Table
Ignition Retard Table
The retard values in these tables are only active if advanced mode is selected. On the table, retard values are shown as negative numbers (i.e. -5 is 5 degrees retard). You can enter retard values from zero to -10 degrees. Ignition retard is the same for both front and rear cylinders. On the chart, retard is shown as positive numbers to allow a better graphical representation.
Editing Table Data
You can edit table data using standard Windows copy and paste operations by selecting cells and then clicking the right mouse button to pop-up the edit menu. You can select cells by dragging the mouse with left button down. You can also use the Modify command on the pop-up menu. When you enter a value, the presence of optional sign (+ or -) or percent
(%) characters affects the outcome of the Modify command as shown in Figure 9.

Use the recommended setup table as a starting point for further tuning. If you have access to a dyno with an exhaust sniffer, refer to the following section for more guidelines. If you do not have access to a dyno, you can still make some adjustments based on the following guidelines:
1. Aftermarket camshafts will generally increase manifold pressure (reduce vacuum) near idle. The
Delphi
®
speed-density control will compensate with excessive fuel resulting in a very rich idle. If the idle still seems rich after using the recommended settings, try further reducing the idle fuel in -5% steps.
2. If the engine still runs rough or coughs (backfire through the intake) under part throttle cruise conditions, try adding an additional 5-10% fuel in the RPM ranges where problems are noted. the fuel requirement at wide open throttle. If the engine still runs rough or hesitates at wide open throttle, try adding 5-10% fuel in the RPM ranges where problems are noted.
4. If throttle roll-on response is poor, try using a higher value for acceleration enrichment.
If you have access to a load control dyno with an exhaust sniffer, you are in a much better position to make accurate adjustments. Skip steps 1-2 for models with oxygen sensors since the ECM can generally make the required fuel changes at idle and part throttle cruise based on closed loop feedback from the oxygen sensors (refer to following sections for more details about oxygen sensor equipped models).
1. Make sure the engine is fully warmed up and has reached normal operating temperature. Run the engine at idle. Trim the idle fuel, while observing the air/fuel ratio (AFR). Idle AFR should be near
13.5. Very few applications will require adding fuel at idle. Aftermarket camshafts will generally increase manifold pressure (reduce vacuum) near
® idle. The Delphi speed-density control will compensate with excessive fuel resulting in a very rich idle. If the idle AFR is still rich after using the recommended settings, try further reducing the idle fuel in -5% steps. If you are using sniffer, obtaining an accurate idle AFR reading may be difficult due to reversion effects. Reversion will result in a false lean AFR reading. If the AFR reading is above 14.6 before fuel trim, but the engine is running reasonably well, you probably have a false lean reading.
2. Run the engine at part throttle near the middle of the RPM and throttle position ranges for low and high cruise. Trim the fuel so that average AFR readings are near 13.8. If you observe a lean spot where AFR exceeds 14.6, add more fuel. You are always better off with the engine running rich in some areas than coughing in one particular lean spot. the fuel requirement at wide open throttle.
However, it is not unusual for some 2-into-1 exhaust systems to have a torque dip at some
RPM point where the engine then runs very rich and fuel must be subtracted. Do wide open throttle runs and record AFR values. Target AFR values at wide open throttle are in the 12.8-13.0 range.
Make appropriate fuel trim adjustments in each
RPM range. High compression engines may exhibit spark knock at wide open throttle. Spark knock can often be eliminated by adding more fuel
(AFR in the 12.0-12.5 range) within the affected
RPM range.
4. If throttle roll-on response is poor or a lean transient (high AFR values) is observed, try using a higher value for acceleration enrichment.
Decel Popping
Decel popping is sometimes encountered with open type exhaust systems without restrictive baffling.
The solution involves modifying fuel values at closed throttle above the idle RPM range. Try removing fuel by using a negative value of 10-20% for fuel parameter
9 (decel range). For more details, please visit our Twin
