Default Help Soon Please?

I am about to do the Free Ram Air mod on my Z28 and need to know this:

if I disconnect my PCM fuses etc etc, will this affect the reprogrammed computer for my 3.42 gear ratio? It was already reprogrammed and just need to know if it will reset itself to stock settings??
please help

No, the program is in it to stay. Just the stuff it "learned" will go away, just agressive driving and stuff.

Why do you need to take your PCM fuses out to do the FRA. Yes your modified program is in there to stay so you shouldnt have to worry about anything. Good Luck

i was actually just making sure in case my SES light came on after the fact (just in case, you know?)


It took me about an hour to do even though I used a hack saw. had to remove the blade from it and use it solo on the lower baffle.... i definitely will encourage a dremel tool to do this task to anyone else. Still was pretty painless. There was also an extraordinary amount of grass...debris etc between the radiators when I got the box off that i was able to clean up as well... we'll see if there is any noteable change now....

anyone else notice a change right away?
