Nope, using a stock tuned PCM. The tuned PCM I left at SP when I was up there getting it all assembled (along with a bunch of bolts I needed ). I had a stock PCM laying around that I was going to try and go through with LS1edit but turns out its the other PCM that it was licensed too but I really wanted to at least get it started and stuff so I'm using the stock one.

Haha yeah well you would have to be here at pretty precise moments seeing as 'the family' doesn't come around very often.
