Lightbulb PCM. from where?

so i just ordered a downpipe from zzp and a JMB FWI,
now i just want to know where i should order my PCM from?

and im also wondering, if i dont get a tuned PCM will my car get messed up due to the high-flow cat?
i was told something about "running rich" or "leaning"

It thoese are the choices, I'd go with zzp. They will customize the program. And check out the newset (2nd newest) member in the member's gallery when your there.

The PCM will not mess up because of the high flow cat - its the other way around. The PCM could throw a code because of the high flow cat, but the ZZP PCM will have the p0420 code removed so it can't throw the code.

ZZP is cool

Out of those two, go with ZZP. Just tell them to give you a tune (ie, raised shift points a little, higher trans pressure, raised timing, fueling, etc) Why are you concerned with EGR & EVAP codes? Are you throwing them or something?
