    Boosterplug

    I installed one on my 2013 and it works well. Smooths the bike out and it is much easier to drive. Actually more fun.

    WTH is a Boosterplug? Can you articulate a little more? A Link mebbe?

    It's like saying "that cake was good" .... What cake? Where did you get it from? What was it made of? How much did it cost?

    Booster plug does work. I installed one on my Rocket 3 when I first got it and it ran much smoother, better throttle response. Cost around $140, but it does was it suppose to do. I didn't know they had one for the F6B, thanks!

    I didn't do a Boosterplug for my past Rocket 3. No half stepping. I did the Carpenter 240HP racing package instead.

    Did you put it in the suggested air box spot and how long was the install ? changed out my own filter and don't remember it as being much fun.

    It gets plugged into the IAT (air sensor), so yes it takes a couple hours to install. Your right, not fun for sure. But worth it (IMHO) in better driveability.
    Webbikeworld.com has a pretty good review on it.

    Nope, no half stepping indeed. I wanted a Carp build soooooo bad! I may still get one after the F6B is gone. I miss that power and torque.

    If I understand the manufacturer correctly, the BoosterPlug tricks the ECM into thinking it is reading a different temperature than what the air box sensor is reading. This prevents the engine from running too lean (with some refinements, of course). Wouldn't the benefits disappear after each ECM "Adaptive Learning" reboot procedure, unless said procedures are always performed with the BoosterPlug disconnected?

    Did you try this, Zteve, and if so, does your test confirm or refute my assumption? Enquiring minds want to know ...
