Default Kenne Bell ECU upgrade

I drive a 5 speed non-turbo PT Cruiser, will the ECU upgrade work still and provide more power?

Thanks, IR for the 411, was pretty clueless there.

heh, you have to mail them your PCM.

I am pretty skeptical about it.

I would suggest a K&N, either a drop-in (that should be on every vehicle) or a FIPK, and a stainless flow-through muffler (axle-back exhaust).

That's OK If your not willing to Fedex your PCM to them then get one from a junk yard. The shifts and the torque are worth it. On my automatic. It will prob work better on a STD Trany anyway.
If I had the stock 16's it would spin them off the line.
Most bang for the buck with the least work.
I'll drop you a line next time I'm near Pensacola. I'll take you for a spin. You could come to the spring break event at the Texas Motor Speedway and I'll show you there. Check the URL www.bigdcruisers.com

I've already got all the other bolt on items. It's either time for NO2 or induction and a new motor. I've been thinkin bout a new motor since I'm at 95,000 miles on the 2001.
