A PCM is a power control module, it's basically a piggy back tune. I just wanted a quick boost in power that I can unplug whenever I need to have any work done on the car. Sorry I've been off for a while, I'm in the middle of changing ISP's. I'll get interior pics up when I can.

great looking car.....If you want advice on your next mod i'd do gears.

Good lookin man! I love how the LT model SS came with that "Z28/SS" placard on the console. So cool

Wow that's only 2k less than I paid for my SS, with 62k on it...

so you chipped the car then? or do you have a full separate controller that you tie in?

Rockytophummer · 08-06-2009, 06:01 PM

Congrats. Nice ride. And as long as it's what you really want and it was your dream car than the price don't matter. Cause even being 14 years old that makes it that much harder to find what you really like low mileage and everything. Only thing I would do is take that front liscence plate & plate holder off it. But if you like the plates on front then leave it. But it looks great and congrats be safe in it and enjoy her!

It's a separate controller, there aren't any chips for the Lt's.

Unfortunately front plates are mandatory here in Texas. I used to run without them in my 94, but the cops are just too much of a hassle.

Yeah I'd leave them on to if it was the law. Luckily here in Tenn. We don't have that law or at least for now we don't. I think that is stupid law also. 1 last question I saw a thread hear a few months ago and don't know what part of Texas it was but it was A 2010 Camaro police cruiser light bar and all. Just wandering if that was just 1 cruiser in the whole state or if that was possibly new cruisers your state or certain cities was actually going to addopt? Wellill quit babbling but congrats on your sweet ride and enjoy I'm sure you will!
1 last thing are you going to give your car a name if so what is it or what was you thinking about?

cool. just asking.

side note, there are chips for LT1s, but no one uses them cus they are worthless compared to a real tune.

Not sure about the Camaro interceptors, I'll probably name it eventually but nothing good comes to mind right now. Perhaps Sable, I need to decide on a scheme because I've got a 2010 SS on the way as well.
