Custom Tune

I finaly got my custom pcm tune yesterday and i'm impressed. My power band is now smooth and solid from 0-120+... car never gets above 170 degrees.... no annoying shift light.... egr stuff is eliminated from the computer... it's just great. Easiest mod ever put on my car too.... the hardest part was getting the p.o.s. laptop to start up..... I highly recomend getting a custom tune....

Damn.. I want one bad too, I guess you also need a friend with a laptop or get one yourself to tune it?

Re: Custom Tune

Theres 2 ways to do it, you can either send your pcm away and have it tuned or if you have a laptop with the correct cable you can install the tune yourself in like 2 minutes....

Either that or get a really long ass cord that is the correct one and connect it to your computer, park your car next to your window and do it there. Wonder if it would work.

Re: Custom Tune

93 - F-body have a removable prom. You can just order a eprom and have it programmed and shipped right to your door. No cable necessary. www.pcmforless.com does those too.

Re: Custom Tune

tunes are sweet i got mines done around march, updated it 2 weeks ago, and u can run it from your bedroom and park the car outside your window and do it..as ghetto as it sounds my friends laptop was acting silly and we didnt feel like taking his computer apart and bringing it into the garrage so we just pulled the car around to the side of the house (only do this if u own your property your house sits on), and sending your pcm away blows, then your cars down while its gone, and when u get it back something may not be right then u gotta send it off again and more down time. burning tunes isnt that great, i think every tune should be to each car, telling someone what u want then sending it to them isnt that great to me for the fact that what u think isnt what the car accepts all the time and adjusting is allways needed.= a wast of alot of time, grab u a hp tuner set and do it yourself...the best way to go

Re: Custom Tune

Can you just get the cord and software fora laptop and plug it into your pcm and just mod w/ software or do you have to get a new pcm?

Re: Custom Tune

You can tune with your current PCM but I sold him a OBD 1 LT1 PCM which allows for better and more accurate tunes. You get like 10 more horse out of a OBD 1 tune than a obd 2
