Who programmed your ECM?

Want to send out my computer to get it flashed... I was planning on using Brendan at LT1swap.com, but I haven't received a reply to my emails, since I'm shipping cross border I don't want any snags.

Who did you guys send yours to?

I'm using Sinister Performance for unlocking the VATS, the initial speedometer and shift points, and such. They don't lock their tunes, so my local chassis-dyno shop can go from there. But the local shop can't unlock the VATS.

I didn't personally have one done by him, but I have seen many members elated with Tuned Performance's work. Brian is a great guy personally, and I know he has worked with members to get things perfect for them after the sale. Not something that is very common these days.

With return shipping my cost is $ 110, and the questionaire form seemed to cover everything. If I need any last revisions after the test drive, it's just shipping. But my local shop should be able to handle any such.

I literally just dropped it off at the post office.
I'll see if I can grab it before they send it off. I'd rather use someone local for sure, especially if it's someone on the board.
