BenKey Posted June 22, 2003 Report Share Posted June 22, 2003 BenKey You would have to sell it cheap as it costs $200.00 to reprogram it. I think that Summit sells the Hypertech for $349.00. I don't want a reprogram, I want it reset. Hoping there is a diff in costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted June 22, 2003 Report Share Posted June 22, 2003 whm, I'm glad you were happier with yours than I was with mine. I saw a difference but I did not think it was a $395 difference. I hear this Westers PCM makes a huge difference (he hopes). The jury is still out on this claim, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4nash Posted June 22, 2003 Report Share Posted June 22, 2003 I met a guy in Hutchinson KS yesterday and he put a Hypertech reprogrammer in and a new intake system and he said that he noticed a huge difference. It was a Red SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a Red SS. Funny - when the hypertech is not even available yet. Unless it came out last week some time. I spoke to them the week before.

ctrow Posted June 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2003 Interesting, I got an email from Diablo today. If you remember I had a hard time reaching them a few weeks ago. Too bad I already got the Westers. Yes, I am happy with it. It seems to be driving better and better everyday. Lyndon is going to make a few changes to transmission shifts but other than that, well worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOLLEYMAN08 Posted July 8, 2003 Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 Wester's Garage has a performance PCM for the SS. It is 10 thousand times better than the hypertech ever wants to be! Westers Garage WHAT REALLY IS INVOLVED IN GETIING TO THE PC IN MY SS? I AM ORDERING TO DAY AND WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IDEA OF WHAT IT TAKES TO CHANGE THE PROM OUT.

ctrow Posted July 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2003 on the drivers side of the radiator, there's a black plactic cover for the PCM. pop it off and release the clip. The PCM will slide out. Remove the two bolts holding in the connectors. Pull the connectors out and exhange the PCM. Do the reverse to hook it back up. Also before doing anything, remove the negative from the battery! BTW, it's an entire PCM and not just a chip that gets replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had mine out at least 50 times and never disconnected the battery Just make sure the key is off ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOLLEYMAN08 Posted July 9, 2003 Report Share Posted July 9, 2003 THANKS FOR THE INFO GUYS. YES I DID HAVE ONE IN MY TAHOE BUT I DID NOT PUT IT IN. A SHOP HERE IN RENO DID THAT FOR ME AND SHOWED ME HE WAS DONE. I HOPE I CAN GET THE SAME GAINS OUT OF THE SS AS I DID WITH MY TAHOE! I AM HOLDING OFF ON THE PCM UNTIL I GET A PIFK AND SOME PIPES, THEN I CAN GET THE PCM PROGRAMMED PROPERLY, VICE HAVING TO SEND IT BACK IN IF I GET THE PCM NOW AND THE ADD ONS LATER.
