  • 97 PCM to 98 PCM conversion

    The 98s still have the angled throttle body with drive by wire throttle control right? So, 98 PCM should just plug right into my 97 Camaro?

    I don't think so, I believe the 97s had a certain pcm system (which took forever to figure out for the hp tuners programmers) therefore the 97-98 PCMs are not swappable.

            yeah, no go on the 97 to 98 pcm. Are you talking about the HPP+ hand held programmer? Or the HPtuners program? If your talking about the HPtuner program, that program works for 97 pcms.

              he wants to buy a 98 hp tuners and use it on his 97 car. that is a no go for him doing that.

                I might. I'm already planning on going to the track on the 12th so it just depends on how much money I have left for gas.

                  are you looking for basic stuff tuned (fans, tm, etc?) or looking for a full custom tune for your car?

                    I need to get the timing and the A/F ratio tuned right. Like I need to get the computer tuned for my 36# injectors so I can get rid of the FMU.
                    Also, I need to look at the MAF sensor readings because I am pretty sure that is pretty messed up from the 180degree bent pipe.

                      I did little research, you can do 96 to 97 and use HPT for 97 ,
                      97 and 98 have different pinouts . we use to have here onsite nice specs/pinouts for all years, couldnt find it anymore
