Dhp Pcm

[Redog]

OK I'm going to get the DHP PCM after my vacation and they come with "falsh guard"

If my SES light comes on and it's reset, does that change the PCM back to stock? :unsure:

who told you they come with a "flash guard"

that is incorrect.

if your going to get a PCM, just buy the Powertuner. they DO support the alero and YOU control how your car drives. and you get to choose TWO years and makes of ANY GM v6 OBD2 cars

so if your buddy wants one and he has a Grand Am, you can get the Powertuner setup for your Alero and your buddies Grand Am and then you both can split the cost.

i dont know what i would do if i didnt have my Powertuner

The guy at DHP told me they have flash guard

Where do I get a Powertuner?

They do have flash guard but you pay extra for it and I think its only good once and you should not have to worry about this unless you take it to the dealership and they reflash it But other wise your good to go. :thumbsup:

All the guys I know with DHP's for their 3800's love them and had good reductions at the track.

I know one guy who already ordered his 3400 DHP for his Grand Am.....just waiting for them to make it for Ecotec and then goodbye governer!

I already have the DHP-PCM what do you want to know?

How long did it take the dhp to figure out the shifts. I have heard they start out sloppy and then start to firm up after a while.

If a ses or svs light comes on and I go to the shop to get that code cleared, does that reset the PCM?

the j-body guys have been trying for over a year and no luck.

But for us 4 cyl guys there is hope for spring time.

I clear my own, if you take it the dealer, you do take a chance on them reprogramming it back to factory or updating as per a PI campaign, but they would have to actually reprogram it, just erasing the ses codes won't put it back to stock. DHP guaranteed me 1 reflash just incase that happened? are you still under warranty?

[Redog]

<_< No the dealer voided my warranty on me but I only had 900 miles left anyway

My mech uses one of those Snap on tools computers

[jabartram]

Yeah i use a cornwell odb2 scanner to check and erase codes and i have had no problems, i'll be selling mine soon because i'm upgrading.

[FormulaNERD]

hey ken, lemme know how that DHP works out for you... i installed my ASE the other day and i love it.

[-Alero-]

yeah or you could always get the ASE chip

Good to hear, I mean, I have a mnual tranny, so I don't need to set my shift points, but getting rid of the top speed limiter, and being able to reprogram other parts of the engine would be great!

it is coming, i have been checking into it and i have a couple more things to check on and if all goes good should have something this year.

i will keep ya informed.

flash gaurd, i gotcha now. you mean that if the dealer were to rewrite the pcm then DHP would fix it once for you.

i thought you meant that they "locked" the pcm so it couldnt be coded over or read by the competion, which is incorrect and they do not do this.

just get the Powertuner. trust me, its worth it. it comes with a scan toll, and case learn feature, and you can program your PCM any way YOU want.

^^^germ were gonna have to talk soon about that :thumbsup:

sure thing man, just let me know and i will point you in the right direction to get ahold of a Powertuner
