PMS question

[Grn331Sn95]

I just installed a 327 in my car and it runs really rough at idle and surges at cruising. I know I can tame this with either a TweeCer or PMS. I also know the TweeCer has unlimited tuning capabilities but although less expensive (if you have a laptop) than the PMS it is harder to get to know. Cost is really not a problem and I hear the PMS is like grade school as opposed to the TweeCer tuning ease. Can you turn off the check engine and egr function etc. with the PMS? I have removed the egr and air pump. Also, if I opt for the TweeCer does anyone know of a tuner in WA. that is competent with this device? I am new to the comp tune world and a little nervous about tuning myself so any help would be great.

Thanks
Chris

I would just do some research on it and find a good person in the area even if you have to drive 5 hrs or so to get it dyno tuned. I live in enid, ok., and i drove to dallas texas to have mine dyno tuned. and i have almost the same setup as you except i have tfs heads and a custom cam from d and d motorsports

The PMS cant turn off the EGR but u can trick it easily. That should not be a selling point. If u have a check engine light outside of that...i would think that something was wrong.

The PMS is MUCH easier to use than the tweecer. I have the older PMS i got for $400 shipped. It will tune just as well as the tweecer. The detail of the tweecer is only good for the ones who know how to go that deep. Once u finally learn how to go that deep, you can save the $250 it costs to enable the PMS to go that deep. All it takes is a program.

Visit stangtuning.com . Your combo does not seem too extreme so you shouldnt have a problem getting base tune on the PMS done. Then go to the dyno to optimize it. Gary over at stangtuning knows this crap like the back of his hand and is always helping people tune their cars.

The PMS and Tweecer are two different tools that will get you to the exact same destination. The chip will too if its done by someone who knows what they are doing. They will all take u as fast and drive as well as the other...the only difference being the person tuning it. And thats where the advantage comes in with the PMS because it takes the difficulty out of it when doing it yourself.

Hope this helps a little.

Hey thanks guys, called the guys at turbo tech. and they can dyno tune for me but can't burn a chip. This of course after I get a piggyback. Still looking around on the forumns for more info/opinions. Maybe I'll just skip it all and go with a carb!
