Performance PCM for chevy vehicles

I was looking for a performance programmer for my 2001 Chevy Silverado and I came accross these guys: www.wait4meperformance.com

For $158.10 they'll send you a PCM programmed the way you want with free lifetime upgrades or changes. You can return you're old PCM and get $60 back, I plan to keep my old one. I ordered one so I'll let ya'll now how it works.

I asked for something pretty aggresive with an even more aggresive map when you push the tow/haul button.

The wait for me tune works great. I have had it in the suburban for about a month. Shifts are firmer, more torque down low, and I got 2-3 more mpg on a recent trip to San Diego. This was easily the best money spent for the Baby wagon to date. Check out fullsizechevy.com for many, many positive reviews.

Did you ask for anything special or just a normal tune?

I asked for the most agressive streetable tune he could provide. I also had him tune for 91 octane here in Nevada. My suburban is a 99 so I do not have the tow/haul button. When ordering the tune provide:

Year and Make/Model
Vin Number
Rear end ratio if not stock
Mods to vehicle
Tire size for speedo calcs
Octane you will be using i.e 87, 89, 91, 93


With the tune the truck is noticably stronger off the line and when passing. I did have to have the crank position relearn performed at the dealer ($46.00) and that is when the truck really came alive. Give Jesse a call with your concerns. He is a really cool guy and will take care of you.

It is worth noting that I did not expect tire frying performance from this mod (truck weighs around 5,000 pounds) but can actually chirp the tires when mashing the go pedal Now if only I could get similar performance gains for the 930 for $158.10

have fun,

JP
