Setting changes
Guys,
I'm about to go to the dealer for restting the fan temp. Since they will be connected to the computor what other setting(for any improuvement) do you recommand. Hardtop 99 with 125k. I'm in georgetown Delaware if anyone nearby i'll pay to use your computor.

DEALER?? Bud,,,the dealer cant change the PCM to alter the EPA approved engine parmeters to suit the owner engine performance needs!
They can "REFLASH' the PCM to an origional or up-dated GM program for your C5 but cant change any of the specific settings.
You can only have that stuff changed via a Tuner using tuning software like EFI Live, HP Tuners or LS1 Edit, or if you have your own tuning software listed above or one of the small hand held tuning programmers like Super chips or Preditor etc.
The dealer can however change stuff in the BCM to suit the owner.

A tech II can change any factory installed option. In otherwords, it can be remover or added. The exception is that the TPS option can not be removed from 97, 98,99, 2000 cars It can be remover/added to 2001 + cars
Why would the dealer be programming your car with a programmer other than the GM Tech II ???
