Shops buy more of them than individuals. They have been used in Corvettes more than anything.

I have used them. I had an issue with 1, but I feel it was damaged in shipping when the PCM was shipped to me.
Dual-Flash is a great option.

Hey Frost,

I was thinking of having a Econ-O tune for Fuel and MPG and a Race tune for those pink slip days

Would I have to lay a base map for both and then have a tuner here dial it in?

And I don't recall, how would I switch between maps? Is it on the fly kind of thing?

If I'm not mistaken you have to cut the car off..

Hey frost, could I run flex fuel with this PCM and use a factory fuel sensor from a gm flex fuel car to automatically switch tunes? Car is a 98 trans am, I would go to a 99+ PCM obviously.

I just thought about it and that might be bad if it tried to switch while the car was running...

you would use the 2002 0411 pcm with the flex fuel sensor installed on the fuel line, and the sensor on it wired into the pcm.

I've got one that we where going to use as a race gas/ street gas setup for a turbo car. The customer doesn't want it anymore. If you need it let me know. Its one of Frost's setups brand new, never used.

Frost, I've been looking at this, and I had a question- Would you have to pay for double the credits in HP Tuners because of the two chips? (I.E. HP Tuners seeing each one as a separate PCM), or does this just appear as a single PCM? For instance, could you flash 1 tune, turn the car off, flip the switch, then flash the second tune under the same vehicle profile?

AFAIK, the product's still being made, and this is one of the few threads about it that Frost is in. Would you rather me clutter up the board with another thread when this one would suffice? SMH.
