    i bought a pcm from will at overkill a while ago........ i havent been able to inspect my car in over a year and a half now wich means i cant get a registration cause it need to be inspected first...... i contacted will and told him this and i payed him more money to send me another one.....well this one hasnt worked either and he stopped answering my emails.... ive taken it to 4 diff inspection places and they have no idea whats wrong...it wont connect to the state inspection machine....has anybody ever had this problem or have any idea what i can do about it cause i keep getting pulled over and getting tickets

    I think its because Will (overkill) locks his PCM's. I would suggest picking up a stock pcm and using that for the inspection instead.

    no....i called a place by me called no limit cause i know they tune cars and they acted like they had no idea what i was talking about..... i feel like a normal mechanic should be able to tell if my ports are bad right? idk how i would tell if my security is off cause i dont live by any one wit a tuner

    I cant get mine inspected either. I had to pull my battery to change the alternator and it reset the comp. Apparently I need to put 2000 miles on it before it will pick up all my systems. I maybe put 2000 miles on it a year.

    03 GTP...Its got pulleys and stuff.

    Nope, I've seen Overkill's tunes pass inspection fine.
