pcm for less or turnercat

i am trying to deceide between having pcmforless tune my pcm via e-mail or buying turnercat and doing it myself.have already bought my cable.any recommendations would help.
also is there anyway to "read" my lt1 file.i used pcmread to get it out but i would like to know how its programed now before i pay for re-programing or new software.or would anyone be willing to read this for me.need to know it has already been re-programmed.

depends on your mods i guess...

I pulled a friends program the other day, PCM4less programmed for GTP stage 2 heads, cc306 cam, Hooker LTs, AFPR, 6spd

great thing about having your own DIY tuning setup is that you can adapt future mods for no charge

PCMFORLESS is pretty good!!

Byran at pcmforless is pretty good, and very helpfull. Tunercat is Great- but it takes a while to figure out, and works great if you can use a car dyno for tuning. I recomend getting both- It takes a wile to get use to Tunercat. Well thats my 2 cents.

Also consider what you plan on doing in the future. If you have big plans, then you might want to get Tunercat and learn now so you save yourself in the future
