East Coast Supercharging
Here's a big 
to Chris and Doug at ECS. I recently had some serious issues with my car. The only piece that was common to all the problems I was having is the PCM, so in standard "throw parts at it" attitude I wanted to replace it, and figured I'd go with a mail-order tune from ECS as well.
ECS gave me the best price for a reman ECM + program that I could find, AND the best part - Doug looked through my troubleshooting thread on here and made me an offer I couldn't refuse - if the PCM didn't fix it, and he thought it wouldn't, I could send him my old one back for a partial refund.
Well, the PCM fixed the problems! After a bit of an issue with over-oiling my BBK filter, which gunked up the MAF and made the car run far too rich and fouled my front O2s, I am finally able to drive the car with the new tune.
Wow! There is a serious seat-of-the-pants difference. I can break the tires loose in 2nd gear all through the RPM range, which I don't remember being able to do before, and the car just seems to rev faster and feel stronger. Getting rid of CAGS is a great plus also.
If you're on the fence, talk to Chris and Doug - they know their stuff, and I am absolutely a satisfied customer!
Thanks again guys,
Will

I just finished a m12 swap on my car and I am bringing my car to them this Friday. I as well will be updating my pcm from a 97 and getting a new tune as well as having them wire the car for the clutch switches. I have an electrical gremlin that I need them to fix, and from the sounds of it i will be treated well.
I think I have a ground problem but I am sure they will be able to figure it all out.

Hey Will,
Sorry I missed your post earlier. Glad we could help!!
Your on a short list of failed PCM's! At least they are not that expensive, and glad it all worked out, thanks for the kind words.
Same here. Matter of fact, they replaced my PCM about 6 months ago.

Haha, your literally almost completely represented now. 
I have had several had to be replaced from being locked by other tuners (I hate that..) but only one or two others besides you guys from a straight up component failure.
