    My vote would be for an OverKill PCM or an Digital Horse Power PCM.

    I would stay far away form INTENSE and ZZP PCM's in all honesty. I have personally seen first hand on other members car what bad side effects happen if you run one of theirs. If your lucky enough to remove it before something bad happens, your one of the lucky ones.

    just click there ^

    if you can change an air filter, you can swap a PCM.

    http://www.grandprix.net/upgrades/pcminstall.html

    how to change a pcm^, i emailed Will overkill about the "case learn", he said, "only get it done if you have a check engine light, and thats a very rare occasion"

    Just email him if you have a list of mods you want to include.

    It took me 2 weeks to recive my PCM, but its worth the wait, My car feels like a different car

    I found a place over here that sells them for about $125 and so I'll stop up there Wednesday. A friend of mine bought one from them for two different cars and he says they're great.

    The factory limiter is set to the speed limit of the factory tires. Keep that in mind.

    At those speeds you have to take everything into condideration...
    like z rated tires, better brakes, tire pressure, torqed lug nuts, any kind of oil leak, even wind resistance, road conditions... etc... when going that fast hope some person or animal is not going to jump out in front of you as well, and that part you have no control over.

    This is posted to help me not to hear your opinion on what I'm doing or what I'm getting, I was just asking where I can get one and what type, if you don't mind sticking to the topic I would highly appreciate it, I have no intent to be rude but if you've got nothing positive to say to help with what I'm asking please don't post it at all. If you have a problem with me or something I'm doing feel free to take it up with me in a PM, not here, if you don't mind please edit your posts.

    I don't consider you being rude and matter of fact I appreciate the way you said what you had to. Theres a lot of people on here that will be rude and not think anything of it. Usually someone will always change the topic...either to ask a similiar question to a similiar problem there having or to comment on something you've said...I kinda get used to it...and if you not new to theinternet forum thing then you probably already know what i mean.So back on topic....If theres anything else you need cleared up about your question let us know.

    I have had a zzp pcm for a few months now and have had no problems. From what i have read it was their older pcms that had all the problems. I have a ses light for insufficient switching of my 02 sensor. If you are looking for top end you will be happy with a pcm, but when you feel the bottom end you will forget about going 140 and love the WOT runs up to 60

    Thanks for understanding. I went to a ZZP shop yesterday but they were closed , I decided on getting it tuned from them. I'll be sure to post back with what my experiences are with it.
