  • PCM, or Tuner?

    I was just wondering, what is the differance between a Jet Power Control Moduale, and a Jet performance Programmer? Is it just that the programmer gives you more control over stuff? Thanks for the help!

          what you can actually change the settings and plug into the car and the other you just hook it up and cant change anything

              the power control module is preprogrammed, its the computer in your car that runs everything
              am I right?

                    benefits = cheaper than buying tuning software/hardware
                    you also get the benefit of not having to go through all the work and studying
                    I dont know if they still give lifetime updates or not?

                      I thought a PCM did everything automatically, and you can remove it to turn it stock...... anyways, I still can't find the site.

                            What are the cons to getting a PCM?
