New toys on the way

Ordered My new PCM and 60lbs injectors from ZZP yesterday. A friend of mine is buying my gm stage 3 pcm and injectors. Just wondering if anyone will think ill see a difference by switching to this setup?

I just installed my zzp pcm and 60s not even 1 week ago. the car ran great for the first day, now it runs like crap. the canned tune does not work well at all, you really need to get a custom tune. i know its alot cheaper, but im telling you the tune sucks. my car is bogging down and hesitating terribly bad when i shift gears. plus somehow zzp managed to write the fuel readout gauge to go backwards, so when you fill up your car is going to show dead empty. when i installed the pcm i had under a 1/4 tank in gas, after i installed it my gas gauge read i had a lil over a half of tank. so even if its backwards, its still not accurate. so once again, get a custom tune!!! i am next week.

i talked to zzp a few days ago...they have supposedly worked out that problem with the gas gauge reading backwards...mine is not hesitating or anything and runs like a champ....it was hesitating for me b4 a bit cuz the o2 sensor (rear) touched the heat shield with the new exhaust on and blew the emissions fuse...i fixed it from touching and replaced the fuse and it runs good....you shouldnt have a problem.....kwest let me kno how if the person doing your custom tune righted your gas gauge problem
