Ok guys and gals, I know that I am probably gonna get a lot of feedback on this and that is what I want. I have done a lot of research and have even spoken to both Bryan and Ion at PCMforless and Madtuner, but want to see what everyone thinks. I have a 383 in need of a good tune (don't have the cash for a dynotune) and I currently use CATS tuner with my cable just fine, but don't have a lot of experience in the detailed stuff. I've been thinking about the email tune as $75 is pretty cheap for a good tune, but can't decide on which one to use. Anyone recommend one company over the other and personal experience?

I have a Madz28 tune from Ion. Runs rich, but that is expected from a mail order tune. Only problem I had was that it took a VERY long time (with multiple calls and emails) for him to return my $300+ PCM exchange refund.

Try reading the 1000 posts like this. I went with PCM for less, no problems as of yet.

Lol it's crazy how many threads there are on this subject. Either will work I've always had good luck with PCMforless.

I had a madz tune on my LT1 car and got the PCM back same week if I remember. Car ran a little rich but it also had nitrous plugs in it.

Like others have said you can't go wrong with anyone that you listed.

i talked to mad Z too and he anwered me right away all the time! I know someone happy with a tune from him too. He would be my next choice but the previous owner used bluecat and he is great too.

Ion did my initial tune after the heads/cam mods, and a dynotune by Speed Inc. a few months later.

i got a mail order from pcm and got my car adjusted on the dyno, its a 93 so basically fuel pressure and air/fuel ration, the dyno tune was only like 130 bucks, look into it maybe, idk what year ur car is, its easier for 93's.

Ion did my pcm when I installed my LE2 h/c setup. It dyno'd 392rwhp with Ion's tune and after a dyno tune, 8 months later, it dyno'd 407rwhp uncorrected. Not bad for a mail order tune.

I'm probably going to go with Ion, from MadZ28, because he's out of DeKalb, IL. Which is only a couple hours from me. There's really not going to be much of a difference between the two though. I started a thread about mail-order tunes a while back, and, I believe it was Brian, from PCM4Less, that actually got into the thread a little bit. They seem to have very good customer service and, if I remember correctly, he even offered a price match to MadZ28 also.

One sucks, the others great and vice versa. Those are the answers you're going to get. Go with who ever you want.

MadZ here and happy with it, I made the choice by location as for I'm maybe an hour or so away from him and wanted it back fast. I also talked to pcm and they were great people. Like I said It was just closer to me to go MadZ
