jackren:
ok clear, Beetle maps is the way to go.
one more thing , I read a lot of positive reviews of Vtwinboost device from Mistral, is it woth while when also doing the Beetle remapping?

I find that hard to believe with the other mods I did and then a remapping, is he just modest?
While the company behind upmap promises huge power and torque gains.
I prefer doing the mapping with free software like guzzidiag so I have more control and also learn a bit about the whole proccess.

I really don't see any basic mods done to this bike increasing power by a noticeable amount. In other words, I agree with Mark's statement. I got a calibration file from Mark for my V85 and I also continued to optimize the tuning myself and have come to the same conclusion.
These bikes are what they are. Unless you make big airflow changes any gain you see is going to be small.

Don't waste your time with those things. All they are is a band aid that fools the ECU into thinking the engine operating conditions are different than they really are. Those kind of changes are much better done by changing the engine calibration.

I have read that one could get a 12+- HP increase (torque?) but it would cost thousands of dollars.

Better off buying that bridge in Brooklyn.
