Cordell Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Heard good things over the internet and such, but no one personally. IMHO mail order will always be sub-par. Need to find out what the problem is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickey4271647545519 Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I always hear good things about them coming off of the s10 forums. Not that, that should say much... most s10 forums are full of 18y/o kid that wanna make their 2.2 s10 the fastest thing on the planet. But yeah... I'd use em.

Nitrousbird Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I've heard good things. That said, I'd fix your issue and have Dyno Brian tune it instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 93s have to have an EEPROM burnt with the tune, you cannot flash the ECM in a 93 with the ALDL port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin5s Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I used them on my Z (they emailed me the tune, I would make a few pulls while scanning, email back, they make changes... rinse and repeat) they seemed to do me right.... I ended up having some issues in the middle of doing this and the guy said we could finish once I get my car back up and running... they seemed pretty stand up to me.

pontiacfreak142 Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 they do pretty good work, but as scott said, its just not the same as a dyno tune. They did the first tune on my firebird and it ran pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Cranium Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I'm not positive we're talking about the same thing, but I have used PCMforless and was very satisfied with the service. I know they will do '93 cars. I used them when we built the 383 to get it up and running. Once the engine was broken in I took it to Dyno Brian, and we did not pick up much (8HP maybe). So PCMforless was pretty close. I will be reflashing the PCM on my Impala in the near future and plan using one of their tune files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budfreak Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I used pcmforless to tune my GTA's L98 and they did a pretty damn good job in my opinion for a mail order tune. It runs excellent, MPG is on par, and it made 235WHP and 318 TQ on minor mods and running rich due to me having the fuel pressure a little too high. I give them and their tuner Alvin Anderson a thumbs up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaSSon Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I've heard nothing but good things about them. I bought the harness for my e-fans from them. Still had my tune done by DTM tho. They seem to be popular in the TBSS world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyM3rC Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 +1 more I've used them a few times when I had the 93 z28, and Alvin was always pretty good to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
