Will getting a new PCM help with HP? I'm wondering this cause I'm thkin once again about getting one and i'm sure it would compliment my CAI well. Just wondering if it really helps performance wise.

well usaully you get a new pcm if you have other mods were your starting to get into more seriouse upgrades. i dont know the exact answer to your question but if i were to take a guess i would say probably a little. i mean your basically getting a better tune which will help. im sure others will chime in.


in my opion its not worth it for you right now becuase remeber, i believe you have to upgrade tot he highest octane fuel wich is always more money!!

I guess the speed limiter remover would be awsome and having the rev limiter off is even cooler.

Herc, when did you get a PCM, was it recently?

I have a CAI and a new dp with u-bend deleted, but my next money is going into struts, brakes, and strut tower braces, because I live in the mountains where there's lots of twisty roads.

Been looking at the Monroe struts, but everyone that uses KYBs swear by them.

I'm still on the fence about a new PCM. I'd hate to spend the money, only to find out I'm not getting more hp unless I wind it up to 5700 rpm. What I want is more grunt between 3000 and 5000.

Chico said it best: Modding is addictive, and it's expensive.

Yah I had to PM Herc because a while back he said something about the woman letting him get a PCM, but we never heard back from him. So I sent him a message to find out if he got it.

GrandPrixGTAlpine: You have an exhaust work, maybe get the ubend delete. For the PCM, there is a list that provides what the changes are to the PCM. In reality, it will make it funner to drive!

Back in the spring time iirc. I bought it from a member on here. Along with a TB spacer that's still sitting in my tool box.
