The Power Commander III USB is newly introduced in 2003 and utilizes the same "direct injector control" technology as the PCIII. The USB port provides an instant, no hassle way to connect the Power Commander module to a computer. This model also features an expansion port for add-on ignition modules.
The PC is a fuel injection and ignition timing (on some models) adjustment unit that plugs "inline" with the bikes' stock ECU. The PC uses original equipment style connectors so that no splicing or cutting of the harness is required. Most installations take less than 15 minutes, some as little as 5 minutes. Changes are made to the bikes fuel and ignition curves via the PC's onboard microprocessor.
Using this technology we are able to offer a large area of adjustment without making any permanent changes to the bikes' ECU (electronic control unit). Removing the PC returns the bike to its previous stock condition. The Power Commander can be ordered preprogrammed with a your choice of several settings, based on the modifications to your bike. The unit also comes complete with software and cable link that allows you to change between different maps or make adjustments to a map file.
The PCIII USB unit includes the 9V AC consumer power adapter. The 9v battery powered adapter is sold separately.
Pros: More than anything else, this power commander produces a much smoother power curve, making the power delivery feel more linear and predictable. The overally performance is slightly better with the new pipe, K&N and power commander. The engine sounds better and runs better with it. The program to load maps is simple and the installation instructions are clear. Installation took under 1 hour and was very straightforward. FYI, if you have a tilting gas tank it makes it much easier if the tank is almost out of fuel (lighter to lift and hold).
Cons: The wires are not of the highest quality and the taping of the wire harness was not the greatest either. The pin tap is far harder to install than the instructions claim, and if you have large hands you might need to do some creative thinking to tap the pink wire with the black stripe.
