Sorry I didn't know you got one, I didn't see it on your garage :P

I was gonna say the P0420 code could mean you need a new cat and not just the PCM

Mine was a complete custom street tune

And right after I installed my HV3, Rockers, and PowerLog, so it was a HUGE difference for me.

Update
installed my new PCM today should I be worried that I did not have to do the security relearn ?? it worked right away I just put my key in and it started on the first try so I drove the car around and shut it off and waited a bit and it started right away again so I let it sit 20min whit the alarm set and still no relearn ??
I guess installed it in 20 min and works great!!
FTW PCM upgrade .. DONE!!

Well, it shouldnt work good right away, the whole thing about it starting right up, Ive heard of that happening so dont worry. You shouldnt feel it right away though, you should have to drive about 100 miles first, then you'll feel hte stronger shifts and some other things, some of the stuff though, will be instant, mainly the shift firmness wont kick in right away. Does the shifting feel VERY smooth right now? Or does it shift REALLY fast and kinda "kicky". I know every time I gotta unhook mine or I mean the battery, I have to drive for a while before the shifts start to firm up again. Hope your happy with it though, I sure as hell was
