Jet pcm

i have a 95 z28. i got edelbrock headers, K&N FIPK, and flowmaster exhaust. i was thinking about getting a stage 2 jet pcm, but i wasn't sure if it would be worth the money. please let me know what u think?

I have one for sale. I used it until I did my cams heads and needed a custom. I ran good times back in the day when that was all there was as far as PCM stuff went...Some may say mail order tune, but if you want a JET, I will cut you a deal. Check your PM's.

Nope, not worth the money at all. You wont see the results you are looking for. Reflashing the PCM is a much better alternative and will give you more options in what you would like changed.

Try one of these 2 vendors, both give good results and are a much better value than the Jet chip. You can either mail your pcm in, or purchase a cable, and update the pcm yourself.

Everyone will say get a mail order tune. Hate to kill your sales pitch (of course this isn't the "for sale" board ).

Even better than a mail order tune is a "real time" tune, provided the tuner knows his stuff, of course.

Agreed, however typically anyone with a flowmaster and a cold air isn't about to spring $350+ for a full dyno tune

I went with a mail order when the only close reputable dyno shop said at least $500 when all I have is intake/exhaust, just wanted to get things deleted and quickly dialed in

Mail order is the only way to go for your mods. Either one of the guys that SteveO mentioned will do a quality job.
