Default PCM Swap

I've been having tranny problems and i was thinking if i should swap the pcm
to an INTENSE from an ZZP. Which one is better and which one has the
better performance.

INTENSE dyno tunes more cars than all other 3800 vendors combined. We dyno 2-6 cars per week and we post all the resulting dyno charts online as well as in our shop. All of this tuning experience is used in each and every PCM we do. We are so confident that you will enjoy your INTENSE PCM over any other aftermarket PCM that we offer a money back guarantee. In fact, not only are we so sure you will love our PCM we will make switching to it an easy choice by offering 50% off our PCM'* when you use a competitors PCM as a core return. Simply return your current PCM to us for the core return and if it is from one of our competitors we will give you the full core value plus 50% of the price you paid for the INTENSE PCM.

You mention transmission problems. Do you believe they are PCM or internal? If they are actual problems with the transmission then you should save for a rebuild instead of buy a different pcm.

The only way it would be the PCM is if it didn't write properly. Intense has one of the "softest" trans files. I highly doubt its the PCM causing issues in this case.

If you've been running the PCM for any length of time and have had no issues...I'm sorry to say, most likely you have solenoid going out.

What kind of trans problems are you seeing-it may be something as simple as the MAF failing.
