Hey All,

In my quest to finish my car, I need to swap out the Saleen Computer for a Factory GT one. From what people tell me, the new GT computer will need the PATS programmed.

Does any one knows who to do this? Does any one know of any cool down to earth dealers that won’t attempt to gauge me?

I went to the Palo Alto one and the service department quoted me about 3.5 hours to do it. I know it is just a 15-minute job; any recommendations on were to go?

Thanks,

I believe the thing is that if they screw up the first time, they have to wait a certain amount of time before they can start over. Right now, Im trying to get a spare key made and Im hating the PATS system. [Mad]
