I have a bone stock 99 suburban with a 454. Original cats and a stock muffler. No performance parts or anything done to the truck. Would the gains from this be worth it. What would a ballpark hp and tq number be for me. Also would this be a plug and play or would I need to swap stuff around on my end? Thanks.

Gains on a stock engine are usually between 30-40 horsepower and 40-45 lb. ft. torque. Definitely a noticeable difference and well worth it if you plan to hang onto the truck but would like a bit more power. It would be plug and play.
I HAVE PURCHASED a tune program from HP tuners.. but have now been told by a third party my ECM will not accept a reprogram. It needs some pins swapped around to make it accept a new tune. Can you fix this problem? if so how much $. I have tried to install a new tune with a laptop n no change in truck . If i purchase your tune on my ECM will it be retunable with the HP program ?

We aren't able to do anything to help with this issue as our tuning software is different than HP Tuners and wouldn't change anything to make it compatible with their software.
Hello, I have a 00 K3500 7.4L and was interested in this ECM. I was wanting to do this soon. Everything is bone stock except the cats are open. Not sure if there is any changes to the tune needed because of this? I had interest in later down the road installing a cam, headers, EGR delete and that's about it. is this something that a local tuner could make minor mods to what you already have or would I need to send this back to you to have reprogrammed? It's not 100% that I am actually doing all these mods, just trying to plan for the future.

Depending on the cam you end up deciding on, that may require a re-tune. The deletes could be done in the ECM at the time of programming it in anticipation that you would be doing the physical removal later on.
I have a 2001 L21 that I would like to use with my 1979 Camaro. It would be a manual trans install if I can figure that part out. I have the ecu that ran the motor. I was hoping to get it running as is with its factory efi and coil packs. Can you help me perhaps suggest a path that will work if possible?
Thanks,
Mike-

We do not deal with the ECM used in the L21 application. My suggestion would be to check with Wester's Garage out of Alberta, Canada.
Hello, I have 1999 C3500 with a 454 and trying to see if your tune will help with the performance of my truck. Currently the Cats are gone and the egr has been deleted. The O2 sensors are still plugged in. For some reason I still have a slight miss and I think it’s because I still have the stock program running with the cats and egr emissions parts gone. Also, the check light is on. Will your ecu help?
( Charlie , 02/23/2024 )
Yes, the tune will most definitely help the performance. The miss could be attributed to still having stock programming but I wouldn't say that for certain. Of course with the tune, we can turn off the check engine light.
