    When i first bought my GT i purchased a DHP. When i went M90 i bought ZZPs tune for the blower. The first PCM would stall the car out, and only command 6 degrees of timing, and dump fuel like crazy. They sent me another one and it fried when i was having the car dyno tuned. I bought an intense PCM and its still in the car now, re tuned a few times with the blower and now how it sits with the turbo. Personally id choose a DHP or Intense, then again i have my own tuner. Is there a GM shop local to you? if they can tune LS cars the 3800 shouldn't be an issue.

    Going with what six said above, one of the main things needed to be looked at is what the tune was designed for and what you're actually running for mods. There actually was a list created about 5-7 years ago that listed motor failures, mods and pcm being used, have to dig up the link.

    If you actually open up each of the tunes in an editor you will see some major differences in the zzp's from intense/dhp.
