This is good to hear, i just ordered up a custom PCM from pcmforless for my car, will be installing the 355 lt4 hotcam combo next week. Also living in MA it is critical that this car passes emissions.. This almost feels like xmas morning !

well every tune (3) that i have gotten from pcmforless has been rich at idle. two on the same car and one on another. i thought it might have been my plug wires but from day one since tuned in my vette it has a stumble while cruising in 1500-2500 in just about every gear. that is with two different cams and 3 sets of plug wires. that makes for an annoying ride with 4.10 gears. madz28 hit it a little closer on my trans am but i can't really give him that much credit cause it was a hot cam and bolt ons in an lt1 so it was a pretty common tune by the time i had it done.

Are you sure the car was tuned by pcmforless? I didnt think they locked their tunes. There is one other mail order tuner that does lock his tunes, but Im not going to call his name pubicly.
But FWIW I have one of their tunes (www.pcmforless.com) on my first car and it runs great and passes emissions. See signature
