Don't do it. At first it appears to be cool..............then the issues arise. Contact AREA47 since you're in MO. Get a custom tune from him. Will cost more most likely, but the Intense PCM will honestly be a waste of your money, because you will buy it AND THEN you will need a retune anyways.

I had 11* of knock on my engine with their PCM..........that's why I got into tuning in the first place.

Your near st.louis county, you dont need Brian(Area47) to tune you, im like 20 minutes from ya, there are 4 tuners in the st.louis area that can help you out......Look at the midwest section on here and talk to some of us STL members, we usually have meets every thursday. There are alot of us..

Avoid the MAF translator. Just have teh shop install your pulley and injectors if you are uncomfortable.

Should of bought 60#'s and paid AJSS 100 bucks to put the OTTP tune on your car with HPTuners.....Read the midwest section, you will learn alot from some of us.

It's not right to be taking their tune and putting it on other people's cars. Each person should pay OTTP for their tune, not just one person on the forums get it and then give it away.

They know what they do when they tune a car. I don't think it's right to re market tunes like that, but, we all started some place.

Anyway Intense = no
