    I've wondered the same. I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone with one yet either.

    Thanks for the input! I bought my o2 simmulator from them and saw they had pcm"s as well, but I don't want to get bit!! I think when I get the money I'll get an overkill.

    I didn't know anyone else existed so i ran a 3800 pcm but in defense for them, all they do is sell other peoples stuff. Compared it to zzp, same thing, but zzp's pcm's suck too. I didn't have it for long until i was sold on my own tuner and went back to a stock pcm and started from there. I still have it if anyone wants it lol. $20 plus shipping anyone can have it, there's nothing wrong with it just don't want it anymore i got tune my own **** now.

    DHP is from 3800 peformance. a DHP 1.0 is a really good base tune for a 3.4 setup, but anything beyond that and it really hinders your performance because of how fat they have the fueling set up on it.

    Any mail order tune in my opinion is good enough for you to drive the car normally until you get to a real tuner to get everything dialed in. Otherwise your just pushing your luck.

    Just an FYI, when I first got my car I ordered a PCM from 3800performance.com and when the package arrived I was greeted with a package mailed directly from ZZP..
