Not too impressed with pcm4less

Does anyone have a non pcm4less tune for a xe 224/230 112 lsa, ported heads, and headers? I get close to 128 blm's in some cells of the PCM but when it switched sells such as 10 and 18 it sucks (Those are the worse) Besides those cells its alright. I was wondering if somone got a dynotune maybe?

A mail order tune will never be perfect as all cars are different. Dyno tune is the best way to go for that reason. My buddy got an extra 17rwhp after Dyno tune.

Im not sure of the specifics...

That price is right on par with all other local shops in the area. Well worth it IMO.

(You need excel to view the first one and datamaster to view the second one)

Datamaster can be downloaded from here...

I believe if you log some runs then send the file to Brian at pcmforless he will fine tune it for you.

you are getting knock retard at idle.. thats not good. the rest of the data doesnt look THAT bad considering you got a mail order tune. your vacuum looks decent for a cam and you arent getting any sensor related DTCs.

Bryan is the man he will work with you. You aren't paying for a Dyno tune. Go slap your car on a dyno and send him the logs he will do you good. He is a straigt up SMART guy. My .02
