hey all ive been a member here for a while but the members list said i havent yet posted so well here goes. im a southern florida student. i drive a bronzemist 2 dr grand prix gtp. has about 70+k on the clock its pretty much all stock. but i do have a question. about to get a dhp for my car and i know you need a core but do i have to send a 99 pcm or can i send a 97 (have spare in garage) but thanks all......

Welcome! Glad to see you finally post :)

As for your question, it might be best to email the guys at DHP and ask them. Here's there web address http://65.109.52.43/home_index.htm

I'm not really sure why it's not showing up as DigitalHorsepowerinc.com, but yea.

iirc you're gonna have to send in the pcm with the same year as the car. i know on grand am's the tune varies from year to year, meaning that a dhp pcm for a 99 grand am isn't going to work in a 01 grand am. so i would imagine it works the same way for a grand prix.

you also have the option through pfyc.com of sending your VIN#, keeping your core, and having a new pcm properly programmed for your car sent to you, it would cost more but you'd be able to swap back and forth if needed.

i don't know about any locals in florida with powertuners, i know if you go back to ohio at all there are alot of guys there that are pretty damn good at tuning so that's another option.

ya thats pretty much what i figured out as well. since i have a 99 or wanta a 99 custom puter i have to send a core from a 99..... so i just got a used one from cgp. and being the nice guy that i am i just gave the 97 to a coworker cause he never knew that they sold aftermarket puters for the cars...... duhhh welcome to 2006!!!! lol
