Anybody know of this Georgia tuner?
Posted: Tue Feb 12, 2013 3:45 pm
So the quest for a tune for my unsupported '98 LSS has brought me in contact with a few helpful individuals, mainly on the GP boards, and also including a few closer to home.
I have been approached by a guy in Georgia, who claims a stock cam record, in what I dont know, but was curious if someone here has, or knows someone with a tune from him? His screen-name is dohcz34, and he's listed as a vendor on grandprixforums.net.
His PM:
"I'm in Georgia in the southeast part of the states. I'll be using the latest OSID for your vehicle (9357155). I've tuned hundreds of cars and I'm sure there are plenty of cars from here, CGP and tunes i've done in person running around. I'd be more than happy to give you screen names, phone #'s and emails of people of cars i've tuned if it's a concern.
Cost is negotiable, Average 1.0 pcms are $150 USD with your core pcm in return. I understand your situation of having a rare car/pcm combo so you'll most likely want to keep your stock pcm. I can do $200 USD + actual shipping cost. I'll declare the pcm as dead/in-op so you won't have to pay tax/duties on it. I offer updates as well with my pcms so if you want a code deleted or a minor change made I can do that for the price of shipping both ways + $10 USD. I've been with the gp/wbody community since 2002 so I'm here to stay and you won't be left with no one to tune your pcm. Let me know if this is of interest to you."

Obviously not an ideal shipping situation, but better if it is shipped person to person, cost-wise.
I have not heard back from Overkill since the end of November, or John at Intense since about the same time, when it was looking like it would be a little extra effort, but totally do-able. I'm guessing it's a potential hassle for them, but I still don't know. The lack of communication has only left me wondering, with no concrete resolution, but the quick response's here also send up a few red flags for me, possibly unwarranted, but hopefully someone here knows of him.
Thanks
