I've got a PCM with some superficial damage. To of the bolt holes are crack about 1/2 inch long. I doubt you would be able to tell with the PCM installed. Guaranteed to work or I'll buy it back.


$125 tuned for your vin/modifications.

Will the PCM above work on a 2006 TB I-6?

I got it last Friday night, been trying to find a place to do the CASE relearn since then. I found a place to do it for $30 today. I was not impressed with the tune initially, but the CASE relearn seems to have made it perform like it should. Now I'm feeling the extra power, and I'm very pleased with the tune. I only wish I'd asked for less torque management, but it won't matter when I put the 32.5s on it. I have to recommend this tune to anyone who is debating having it done. I know from now on, whatever I drive will have a performance pcm tune in it. Way to go PCMForLess! :cool:

Great!

So, you are saying once you had the CASE relearn done your TB runs better and fe:undecided els much stronger with a tune?? Very interesting, this might make some non-believers of a CASE relearn think again if they are complaining about lack of performance...

Yes. As far as I'm concerned the CASE relearn was a big help. As I said, I was not impressed with the tune until AFTER the relearn. It will bark tires off the line now where it wouldn't before the relearn. Also my wife and grandmother both felt it was more powerful than before the relearn, and they are NOT mechanically inclined. (They know it needs fuel and an oil change every so often, but that's it.) They drove it to the shop and could definitely tell the difference on the way back home. I did have a difficult time finding a place to do it. Either they didn't have the equipment or didn't even know what I was talking about. One area dealer wanted $65, forget that. I found another dealer's service shop that would do it, no questions asked -cost me all of $31.09.

I'm glad you like the tune.

We really put a lot of R&D in on these tunes.. hell I own one of them so how can you get any better than that. Playing with the VVT effectively, completely remapping timing and fuel along with a different shift routine and pressure are the ways we deliever a tune to make your trailblazer perform as it should have in the first place.

I've also heard feedback of improved performance after a CASE relearn. They tell us a CASE relearn has no bearing on how the vehicle feels and it may just be something else.. but I sure have heard alot of comments that say otherwise.


One final note.. You will find that the tune doesn't fully optimize until about 200 miles or so. After which you should start seeing the best performance and shifting along with a bit better fuel mileage.
