They don't give you much you be better off sending your PCM to ECS for a mail order tune $150.00

That seems a lot more like a hassle to me. I'm probably. Just going to dyno tune it. Best bet

I have been told dyno tune is the best way to go but there is no one in my area to do one so I have just sent my pcm in to ECS to have it tuned also I have heard it is the best bang for the buck.

Don't waste the money on a handheld. Get a mail order or street tune.
