Thumbs up Very happy with my tune from PCMforless!!

I didn't have enough money to get a tune right after I did the HOTcam and heads install, so I drove around on the stock tune for a little while. It used to try and idle at 550 RPM, it would surge off idle and die when I cut the AC on and came to a stop. Basically driving the car wasn't fun, it was more like a chore because I had to keep my foot on the gas at idle, and low end driveability was poor.

Anyway I got my tune from Bryan at PCMforless yesterday. I swapped out the PCMs last night and went for a ride. He did everything I wanted, and it feels perfect! It idles smoothly at 750 RPM now, instead of choppy like it did. The fans come on earlier and keep the car right where I want it temperature-wise. Off idle throttle response is perfect, no more surging, it's as smooth as stock now. Also I asked if he could smooth out the 1-2 shift at part throttle because with the stage II shift kit it's waaaaaaaaaaay too violent for the street. He smoothed it out and now that shift feels perfect. I did a few WOT pulls, and the low end is better, and the top end feels better too. It's not night and day, but my butt-o-meter has been known to be off. I'll have some new track times soon! Thanks Bryan

Yeah I had Bryan Personally Street Tune my car (not Dyno tune..Yet)

But with Boost, Bigger Cubes, cam, the sTall and 50# Injectors and etc...He did a great job, the car runs good and idles great.

I will have him dyno tune it later this year with some Wideband 02s to get it more accurate and get some more ponies out of it but I was VERY PLEASE with Bryans ability to tune and his price as well....He is also a great guy!

Thx,
Claude

It was worth the price I paid just to get some driveability back. The car feels almost like stock again as far as street manners. He was also able to get rid of the lope from the HOTcam-SLEEPER!!
