Default TTS Powerloader II vs Ed Wright Custom Programming

I currently have the PLII, but was wondering if I sent out my PCM to Ed Wright for programming, how much of a difference, if any at all, would there be? I am not sure how much more in depth their programming is over Steve Coles. Any thoughts or opinions?

Unless you have need for reprogramming there is no need to change. Both the OLII and the Ed Wright program are similiar. Until you get into modifications that require a reprogram..leave well enough alone :yesnod: I speak from experience from both vendors.

When you add gears or head and cam setups you will need to send the PCM to Ed Wright for reprogram because frankly Steve Cole has forgotten how to reprogram..IMO. I'm still waitng for 3 months with broken promises and no response to calls or emails..it's a shame

IMHO, If your Vette is a 97, 98, 99 or a Y2K and you can find a good dyno shop that has and knows how to use LS1-Edit, they could optimize the programming of your PCM for your car. Sending your PCM away or getting a Powerloader gets you kind of custom programming but it isn't the same as actually tuning (editing) it on your car.
