Well there are MANY capable people around the Kansas City area. I know, I live there. If he gets a NON-97 Motor and Trans then he will not have to worry about the vacuum powered '97 transmission...and then if he got the PCM from that motor/tranny setup it would be like tuning a '98-'02 GTP. Easy. Plus no one at ZZP has any credible tuning skills as of now and they having nothing but Cobalts to back it up now. Sure maybe a few years ago when they had their 8 second turbo car out the track all the time, but not anymore. But enough about ZZP.
selliott, go jump on a local club and get to know a few of us. Kansas City Pontiac Motorsports Club - Home Reptile and Abrasive on here have done MANY projects on the 3800 series engine and Reptile does great tuning, especially since he has a HP Tuners, but also knows the in's and out's of the DHP Powertuner (which has tuned mine many a times). Hope you get it figured out and if you do, shoot me a question if you'd like and I can be sure to try and help you out since your in the KC area![]()
