Madz28 or PCM4less?

So which one is better if either? I see that Madz28 is about $10 cheaper. Has anyone ever had any problems from either? I will probably be ordering one monday and just sending my old one back to them. Any info will be appreciated!

I hear they both do great jobs. Personally I'm gonna go with madwolf since he's a supporting advertiser.

I would go the dyno tune route if your car is heavily modified. My mail order tune from madwolf is ok, but it is not ideal. Some people have great results, but for me the results were just ok. I hope to get my car dyno tuned and see how much difference it makes. After talking with the dyno tuner I am looking to get an appointment after Christmas.

Thanks for all the info guys! My car really isn't modified yet. Just simple bolt ons and free stuff. I will have heads and cam stuff eventually but I'm not sure when.

They both are awesome guys. I'm like HBH, and went with Bryan at PCMforless before I knew about Ion. I had a bone stock Z and then went to what I have now. Sent Bryan my specs and got the comp in 3 days. Put it in and with one touch of the key it started and purred like a kitty. Nailed it off the bat. Either way you won't loose. I would say the advantage about Ion is that he is always here on the board and he's ez to get a hold of.

Ion went way out of his way to help me. He got me my e-mail tune very fast because I told him I was in a hurry to get my car running. When I went to load it, I messed up and killed the PCM. I e-mailed him to ask what I needed to do and he got back with me within 10 minutes. He sent out a new PCM immediately and I got it the next day. It was great to get help that fast because I really needed the car.

I am very happy with the tune, my car runs great.
