Hey, I'm knew here but I know I figured I would get a faster answer here than I would in the corvette forum.

So, I sent my PCM out to get tuned to a stock tune. It was a PCM I purchased from someone parting out a 1998 Camaro SS.

Turns out the tuner (after much beating around the bush) loaded a 2001 trans am tune onto a 1998 LS1 pcm. He said he used CATS to do it.

With that said, is my PCM done?

I'm willing to bet it is. He asked me to send it back to him to re-tune it I did of course.

If that is really what was done then your PCM is most likely a door stop now. You can not flash 99-02 files into 97-98 PCMs. 97-98 PCMs don't even look the same as 99+ PCMs. Takes a special kind of dumb *** tuner to do that. Especially since Tuner Cat will give you a warning that the file you are flashing was not originally used in that PCM Service # - Do You Wish To Continue.

Ughhh... get refunded and find a different tuner.

The problem isn't finding a different tuner. The problem is he ruined a 299.99 dollar pcm that I can't find another replacement for or afford to do this again.

Sounds like your tuner should be out 299, not you
