    Hey guys ... I was so sad when the dealer told me that my PCM damaged ... now I have to pay around 600$ for new one, all that becuase i was tunning my car with custom tune by CMR and after third run on dyno the codes kept coming up and it's switched off ... I dont know what is the real reason to damage it !! is it the tunning or overload ... anyway my car will be ready to use next Sat. then i will tune it again, carefull guys when you tune your cars.

    The last run on dyno was 489rwhp and there is more to go up ... wish me luck :please:

    ( Ported Heads and Intake stage 4 - Arrington cc607 camshaft - Kooks stepped headers - AFE CAI - SLP underdrive pully - CMR tune )

    490 out of a h/c/i is amazing!!
    What was it doing?
    What codes did it throw?
    Who was doing the adjusting?
    How much timing are you running?
    What's your AFR?
    How much KR?
    Did you call Diablo?
    What CROM were you running?

    Didn't we used to buy spare PCMs (for the B&G flash) for about $200? and then dealers sometimes charged $50 - $75 to flash them with your VIN.
