    i was looking at the zzp pcm, i dont know to much about tuning. I just wanted something simple to remove the speed limiter and raised shift points. I also noticed i need to run 91 premium fuel, that dosent really bother me. i really only have a catback and cai. Is zzp a good way to go?, i was reading some other threads and nobody seems to like them. Or can anyone recommend a really good PCM like zzp's for around the same price range?
    thanx

    when zzp sent me my pcm for my m90 kit, it was giving the car the wrong voltage, wouldnt idle, and lit up the dashboard like christmas. they sent me a new one and all is well. before the m90 kit i had an intense pcm and worked fine.

    i would look into overkill pcms (check vendor section at the bottom of the main page).

    ive heard a bunch of bad stories with zzp pcms, which is not a good thing.

    i wish DHP was still around, my 1.0 was awesome.

    ZZP PCM's are worth about as much to you and your car as a brick.

    I personally have the ZZP PCM and dont have any problems w/ it. It did remove my speed limiter and made my shifts a little harder. Thats the main things I noticed. If you want something around the same price I would say try Intense or WBS. I know a lot of people like Intenses PCM's but I dont have any personal experience w/ them. A lot of people on this forum highly recommend Overkill but I think they are a little more expensive. But may be worth that extra cash.
