Help with Power Commander V Map

I have a 2012 M800 with an Aaen can on it. No other mods at this point. I received a Power Commander V for Xmas but it doesn't seem to have any map on it at all. My understanding, after lots of reading, was that they come with a base map that will overcome the stock mapping issues. Looks like that's incorrect and I'm unable to find any maps for the sled except the SpeedWerx full exhaust map. Any ideas where to look? Thanks!

Picked the PCV as my understanding is that the stock mapping is on the lean side. From what I've read, the PCV can improve base power by running it a bit richer which is why I'm trying to get a good map for the sled.

I went riding on Mt Baker today, first time I've ridden the sled since putting the can on. Didn't do any sidehilling which, I think, is where the weight difference will really come into play with the Aaen can. However, there did seem to be a little bit of power improvement and I really appreciated that it didn't sound aftermarket.

Once again, all of the research I've done indicates that the stock factory setting is fairly lean in order to meet EPA requirements so a PCV can open more of the engine potential.

On a side note, I'm on here asking for advice. If all you're going to post is negatives, please don't waste time. Thanks
