I think you can run a 96 ecu and swap 2 grounds on the ecu plug iirc. Gets around everything. Unless the reprogram is cheap. I think I have 2 extra 98 ecu's if you need a spare.

I have been reading on what it would take to do it myself. But I want the thing cleaned out of all unnecessary diagnostics like egr, evap and three way catalyst plus the passlock system. If its reasonable I can just have it done--still researching the what ifs and cost's...

Not sure if Wayne Hartwig is doing more than just LsX stuff, but may be worth a call. 150tunes.com is his website.

Yeah, he has done a couple of setups for customers stuff and did the tune in my LQ9/6.0 TJ that I just sold.

Wayne (150tunes) or 208 Motorsports seem to be the go to guys in the NW.

Great info fella's. Going to email wayne with a few questions before I send it off..

Perfect wayne got back to me regarding turning on fan control with my pcm...
So I will be looking at turning off egr,evap,3 way catalyst, tranny control and speed input and then having the fan come on like 200...

So the one and only thing I forgot and I have to email wayne was the fan on/off temps.
So I wanna run a 195 t-stat. In the old rig I ran a 180 with fan on at 200. I found in cold temps like below freezing the heater just wasn't hot enough and I would turn the fan off to raise the temps.. So for fan control what would you suggest on at 210 and off at 200?
