Post Some questions about programming

I was wondering with the mods I have, would it be a good idea to have the car programed?(All the mods are listed in the sig except for new double valve springs) I know there are a few places that you send the computer off to but which one should i go with and how would i go about doing that? I do not know much about this area of our cars so any info would be great. Thanks.

I would for the gears, if not taken care of already. If not, then I wouldn't until you got a cam, until then the dynamics of the car are pretty much un-changed.

hey,
i'm new to programming and want to get into it. I had bryan do my PCM at PCM forless.
I still have a GP with him if you want to do it, shoot me an email.

gears and 52mm TB are good things to tune for, also u can get some power out of advancing timing a bit and leaning it out at WOT

Cool

Look at his website. www.pcmforless.com he can give you a good starting point. I think tuning is about $100 or so. Check him out.
