Just reading that gives us all an empathetic cringe as we think back to snapped bolt heads, stripped threads, cracked housings and the such. Oh frick, what did I just do?

I've never had HPT do that. DHP on the other hand...never leave home w/o a spare pcm.
Dan..why are you leaning out the fuel when the air is denser? Shouldn't you be adding fuel for the added air?

Because I was running rich. My tails are black. Now my wide band has me at 11.8 at WOT, and about 14.5 at idle. Need to adjust the MAF curve a bit.
I've never heard of HPT bricking a PCM, and I didn't want to be the first. Best I can figure is the PCM didn't like me hitting abort. Might have also had something to do with me turning the key on after starting the transfer. Guess I had a brain fart. Wont do that again.

Of course I cant play the "tuner" game, But how hard would it be to have a Going on a trip PCM, a daily driver PCM, and a Headed for the track PCM.

Easy.
Easier yet though is to have a spare pcm handy and have those as seperate tunes. It'* quicker to load a tune than swap a pcm and swapping a pcm is quick.
