I probably already know the answer to this question but I have to ask. Im looking at the performance kits on 3800 Performance, What I want to know is.... Do they offer enough in the kit to run with little or no KR?
 


Yes i've read that many times and many other posts. Just wishful thinking that maybe they added some magic powers to those parts
 
I was looking at kits myself a while back and found that they were missing a couple of pieces, and generally locked you in to a "proprietary" PCM that was "tuned" by the place selling the kit. Those tuned PCMs have been known not to be the best, to say the least. (Stay away from ZZP tuned PCMs for example. Go with a DHP PCM.) I opted to read the "Safely Modding..." thread and have gone from there.

Here is a link to make it easier on you...

for you...the difference in that tune from DHP and a custom one is 13s...just sayin :th_winking:
 
LOL @ performance kits.

'04+ car?

TDC FWI, 180* T-Stat. DHP PCM (From 3800 Performance), 3" Downpipe, PLOG, (or headers instead of he DP/PLOG), ZZP Modular Pulley System with a 3.6"...should be good enough for a knock free DD setup or something along those lines.
 
I agree that a DHP PCM FTW, but several of the places selling the "kits" are not using DHP PCMs (such as ZZP whose PCM is really bad from other people's experience). That was my point. Sorry for the confusion I created.
 


the only 3800performance kit i would buy would be the TEP cam kit with all the stuff to run the cam on stock heads.
