    Planning on top swapping my 02 GT. Right now now im looking at the Intense racing, overkill, or the 3800performance DHP tunes. The mods on the car would only be the top swap and headers, with the stock pulley on the supercharger. I looked into the DHP but that recomends a 3.4 pulley. Any thoughts? If i could though, id want to get a DHP tuner with a good base tune and try to learn tuning anyways.

    But if that's not a option then really all the vendors PCM are similar

    Ok. I wanted to do an in car tune but the $500 the shop charges isn't really in the budget right now.

    I would go with intense or overkill. Intense would probably be easier to get in contact with considering tuning is not Will's full time job.

    Yeah I've checked. That's their price they gave my buddy. Its excessive auto in sioux falla sd, and they're about the only ones close enough to do it.
