Top end swap, or top swap, is where you take the top end of your engine (heads, LIM, UIM, TB, etc) and swap it for L67 (supercharged) top end parts. That way you become supercharged.

With that out of the way, a PCM isn't hard to install. Just takes 30 minutes (for the security learn) and you may need a CASE learn. Although, I recommend it be done with a PCM install anyway. Takes either a Aeroforce gauge, DHP Powrtuner, HPT may do it, or a Tech 2 type computer.

Oh, and don't over tighten the connectors.

Why?

Security learn is easy and doesn't require anything special other than your key. I know I've posted it on here before, so I'd suggest searching.

i dont know cuz those are the only options.so do i pick "none selected" for option 1?and do u remember what category its posted under?

Option 1 should be "None Selected".

The only option you should be messing with is Option 4 if you want (plus the others that are required).

I think it's under the PCM section.

Slam me if you want, but if your doing a top swap and you wonder about doing a PCM replacement, you're going to have some problems.
