To my knowledge, there is no one on this list (with the exception of Robert
Legere) who is sufficiently hard-core to use anything other than a factory
ECU reprogrammed by Jim Wolf Technology in California.

The factory ECU is 100% capable of handling aftermarket cams, intakes,
headers, blah blah blah. Since the ECU uses a "hot-wire" MAF to measure
incoming air, it can, literally, adjust to pretty much any mods you throw at
it, excluding things like high-compression pistons or a turbo. Save your
money and energy and just order a Jim Wolf ECU--you will get great
performance and you can just plug the thing into the wiring harness. With an
aftermarket system, unless you have a lot of tuning experience and a dyno
sitting around, you are *begging* for frustration and problems.
