Default Anyone used PCM4LESS?

Anyone here used them for there tune? if so, what are your feelings.
Happy with tune, customer service, performance and such, i have been thinking of going several ways, and just wanted to hear of some peoples experience with these guys. I'm down to either the VHP hand held/Nelson/PCM4LESS. I'm pretty much stock now, but since i can't ever leave anything alone, there might be mods in the future, STS/NX/Heads/Cam. I like the idea of the Nelson having free updates, and after talking to them, i really got a good feeling about them, and going with the fan harness and having them program my LS1 fan operation, but also add in the manual switch. Any opinions/experience would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Guys!

Yes I have, and so has my Buddy. I have a 5.3 2003 silverado, and he has the 2003 SS silverado. We both saw tremendous gains from the tune. I love it and wouldnt have gone anywhere else. Its atleast 300$ cheaper than others, I paid 250$ for mine. I had it within 3-4 days. and upgrades are only 50$. Go for it, its wonderful.

Plus i figured for as cheap as they are, i would keep my stock pcm for now, in case i had to take it in for service, i could swap pcm's to keep them from flashing my cal'd one to stock. i mean even with paying the core charge, your only at $375, which is cheap, and when i mod past the warranty issue, i'll sell the pcm for a hundy or something.

I went with pcmforless and it seems like a great tune. Alot better than the handhelds. I'd say it comes down to what price plan you want.

My suggestion is talk to all of the tuners you would consider and ask them to give you a sales pitch. Ask them what they think of the other tuners out there. If they will take the time to talk to you then they are probably worth it. If they won't give you the time of day then give them the big FU.

I used pcmforless when i had my z28. Brian did a great job with it. By the way Dungy, did you ever figure out what was wrong with the nifton actuator wires, it was causing a very strong smell last time i saw you, it actually smelled like rotten dog ****.

I had brian tune my old z28 with heads and a custom grind cam, and he did an awesome job. Nelson also does an excellent job from what I hear, and gives free updates, but costs more initially.
