Zzp pcm

When you buy a ZZP tuned pcm can you just swap it out or does it have to be installed by a gm dealership?

3 plugs to swap it.

The lower two were a little tight for me, but when you lift the latch just wiggle it. It'll come.

Not everyone has local tuners.

If I were to get all my mods without my tune I'd have to tow my car 2 hours before I could run it, the canned tune will get me over until the spring when I get to Calgary at a reasonable outside temp for tuning.

If tuned for meth I would keep the tank full and have the meth start in between 8 and 10 psi of boost .

Well I can't afford the meth kit yet but I need re PCM for my injectors. So I was gonna buy the PCM set up for meth and wait a month or two for the meth kit. Can I do that?

If u want meth and u can't afford it yet. If possible like I said before try to find a local tuner if can't order from zzp and have them send. A tune for no meth. Then when u get it have someone revise the tune.

so to answer ur question ... if you buy a zzp tuned pcm, you will need a case learn by a dealer..
if you send in ur pcm and have it tuned u do not...and if u have them email you a tune and you update it via hptuners u do not...
So...the cliff notes are.... yes and no depending on how u receive their tune.
