yup same hpt, buy credits and unlock just about any car these days, well any worth tuning at least.

so far i got the regal, the hoe, the work truck unlocked, got 2 credits left of the 8 it came with, not sure if the camaro is 2 or 4 credits, they tend to cost more for the newer cars.

i need to read up a lot more crap, seems this pcm is not gonna be much like anything im used to. might pay for some remote tuning. then maybe best to have it dyno tuned once boost is added.
Work truck too lol?

it needed evap codes deleted to pass inspection, ive tried to fix it many times, huge fail over and over, so delete....

and of course i changed a few small things in the pe settings to help it move better. its a 05 chevy 3500 mason dump, how much help is that gonna need while its loaded to the gills. you cant beat on it much so i figured stock it should stay.

Yea, I guess that is all. So, not really a big deal. You are only to use Pro-Charger oil and I change mine every 3000 miles. It's just a pain if you forget to order it when you use the last bottle. I've seen others have used different brands of oil but then you follow them along and they seem to have issues. It does have a special sound when it's running that is hard to conceal.
Here is a video of it just after I changed the oil. Using Royal Purple in the engine and the Pro-Charger oil in the unit. I have the Airlift jacked up to get it on the ramps and help get under it so it looks like a 4x4.

Interesting; my Whipple only needs the oil changed at 100,000 miles.

Washington. The desert side not the Starbucks side
Stopped dragging my feet and got it all together. Did front wheel bearings on it too, will tell that story when I'm at a computer.

Just waiting for some buddies to get an opening in their schedule so I can get a hand torquing the harmonic balancer bolt. Why it's tty instead of a woodruff key and flat torque I don't know.

Should have bought the ARP one, it is just a torque once to 235 ft pounds and reusable as well.
