Pcm swap, CASE relearn?

I'm in the process of installing the zzp stage 3 kit. I should be finishing up today and I was wondering if I will need a CASE relearn due to my swapping of the pcm? If I do, does anybody know a way to do it without hpt? Or is there anybody around the St. Louis Missouri area that would be willing to help me out with it? I will pay you for your time, I just don't know anyone with hpt sadly.

the CAS learn will need to be done. any decent automotive scan tool (not a code reader) should be able to do it. if your unable to find someone with hp tuners find a local repair shop and ask them to do it.

You can go on zzp website and look how to do very simple process hard to mess up and if you do mess up you just have to restart over

Crank Angle Sensor Error relearn.
The process relearns any imperfections in the reluctor to increase accuracy for misfire detection. The process has you rev the engine then it will shut down the fuel and spark so it can rotate without combustion cycles. Since this is a bi-directional command, code readers cannot perform this.

Thanks for the info guys that definitely helps me! Do any of you by chance have a link to zzp's, or anyone else's, instructions on how to perform this? I'm having trouble finding some, maybe I'm just an idiot lol

What ever bidirectional scan tool you use will walk you through it.
After the engine is warmed up it will ask you to floor it and the PCM will shut down the spark and fuel so you can take your foot off the throttle and let it return to idle.

So I haven't gotten any codes and my car SEEMS to be running fine, however I'm not entirely sure it's at its full performance potential. I can definitely feel a big difference in power, but I don't know if I'm losing any due to not getting the relearn yet. So basically do you guys think I'll be okay without it, or should I just go ahead and do it?
