Default Marc's ECM

I am sure this question has been asked already but here goes. Is Marc's ECM simply a plug and go process? If not what is also involved. I am planning a trip from Washington state to NCM. Would like the car running cooler and more efficiently for this trip. Currently stock and runs great.

I assume you are talking about just his chip, correct? If you buy it direct from him, he will set it up to your car (stock) with his little mods for fans etc, and you can just plug it in and go. Talk to him when you order it. He is very helpful.

Yes it is just the chip. He will explain exactly how to do it and it is simple. I watched him do mine when I had the car at his shop. Best mod I have - car runs cooler by far and that stupid 1-4 shift thing is gone...

The whole thing took me about 20 minutes, including disconnecting/reconnecting the battery. It's VERY easy to install. I would NEVER try installing a chip again in an earlier car where it's mounted under the dash, but in our cars, it's a piece of cake!
