There are a couple of reason 690 riders dump the stock exhaust: The original exhaust weighs a ton and gets incredibly hot and, a freer flowing exhaust (with a suitable change to the air box lid - drill holes in snorkel or get the hard parts evo1 lid), with a suitable map brings to an end the flameout/backfire, surging issues that can plague the bikes in stock form.
TuneECU is free as are the maps but you will have to buy some decent (lonlec) cable and adapter. But as mentioned above TuneECU will not talk to the '14 so no use to the op.
I'm not even sure the dealers have a Akra map available for the twin spark 690. If they do then get the dealer to load it on the bike - but you must make changes to the air box lid.
There's a huge amount of info and advice on advrider for the 690
