Ok well u probaly remember me, if u dont I have a 05 gto, I guess there was a problem with the trinity and I had to send my pcm and tool back to you and I still have to go to the dealer to unlock the pcm or something, I am going tomorrow, and I will get the tool back soon, I really dont want to take it back but I am really nervous of this happening again, I dont feel like calling the tech and buggin them so your opinions would be cool....thx

We have 1000s of GTOs running Predators out there, this is not common by any means. Lew (06MonteSS) has probably custom tuned 100 or so GTOs and never had an issue...

OK i just towed the car to the dealership and the gm service department made me so scared....they looked at my situation like they never seen it before and said "oh the pcm is out of the vechicle, i never seen that" so i asked if they wanted me to plug in the 3 clips they said no and then said they will try and if the pcm is fried then i have to get a new one...

all it needs is a VATS relearn, not a reflash.

ok i just talk to the gm tech and he said in order to unlock the pcm he needs to get a code off of the Bcm and it is gonna cost me 250 dollars for 2 or 3 hours of work at 105 a hour...and i have to pay for this out of my pocket because of some com chip failure on the trinity

this sucks!
