You better leave now, you might get there by the 20th.

On a more serious note, Call vette doctors and see if you can bring them the PCM and see if they can program the FCO out of it and then drive the car down for you tune,

I didn't like the answers they gave me to some of my questions. I just didn't feel right about the answers. I felt like they just wanted to get my car there to make money off of it.

Actually I called Chuck at Corvettes of Westchester. He seamed like a nice guy and answered my question and seemed like he wanted to do the work for me.

Chuck is first class. He treats every customer with the utmost respect and is an incredible tuner. He doesn't butter you up he gives it to you in black and white.
