Description:

The engine/transmission computer calibration is vital to the performance, efficiency and overall enjoyment of your vehicle!

We are pleased to offer our Overkill 3900 V6 ECM/TCM, an extensive refinement and revision to the control modules that manage the engine and transmission in your newer GM 3.9 litre 6 cylinder vehicle.

No matter which family sedan you've upsized your V6 engine on, you may be surprised you can have more and better fuel economy to boot. Our improved controller settings focus on improving power output and acceleration, improving the behaviour of the transmission, improving fuel economy in all driving conditions and providing an immediately noticeable improvement in how the vehicle drives. Your 3900 will feel much more responsive and fun to drive, and you'll be surprised to find an improvement in fuel economy with appropriate driving. Whether you're an enthusiast car owner or consider yourself a normal car owner, these are differences you'll be able to feel and enjoy!

Features/Benefits:

Engine
  • Retuned Spark Advance under all conditions to increase efficiency, improved power, smoother acceleration, faster KR recovery rates
  • Spark Advance optimized for either 87 octane or 91+ octane
  • Revised Air/Fuel calibration to increase power under heavy throttle and reduce fuel consumption
  • Reduced "Torque Management", removal of power limiters, removal of performance fueling delays, removal of throttle delays and dead spots
  • Displacement On Demand (when equipped) revised with optimized on/off calibration and highway use only
  • Increased fuel mileage capability: revised spark advance and revised variable valve timing increases efficiency, reduced fuel use under heavy throttle, recalibrated part throttle fueling, revised transmission settings reduce driveline loss, and revised 3-cylinder DoD settings improve its operation when equipped
Transmission
  • Optimized shift schedule at part throttle for increased performance
  • Improved shift feel, reduced shift time
  • Revised Torque Management retained to reduce engine power during upshift, reduce stress
  • Reduces driveline loss under cruise to increase throttle response, improve MPG
  • Reduces issues such as shudder/slip from standstill, torque converter lockup oscillation, plus intermittent hard shift and soft 2-3 shift common to 3900 Impala/Monte
Additional
  • A/C shutoff over half throttle to increase power, smoother idle speed, speed limiter removal, rev limiter in park/neutral raised, revised cooling fan settings for stock or aftermarket cooler thermostats with 1 minute key-off runtime, reduced traction control sensitivity, annoying loose gas cap SES light disabled


If your vehicle has aftermarket modifications, we've tuned hundreds of vehicle modification combinations and can make additions and revisions to enhance intake/exhaust and more extensive modifications. We also have specific timing tables to get the most out of either 87 octane or 91+ octane.

87 vs 91+ octane The 3.9 V6 engine is less suceptible to engine knock/ping/preignition when compared to its peers. If you're purchasing a tune and looking for the most horsepower, we can do the most for you if you're willing to run 91+ octane. If you're purchasing for a noticeable performance increase during daily driving, improved transmission life and behaviour, and fuel economy, the 87 octane tune will provide all the benefits you're looking for. With breathing modifications such as exhaust work and an intake system, 91+ octane benefits are available with 87 octane. If you have a DoD equipped 3900 motor (certain 07-08 applications), running on 3-cylinders is noticeabley stronger with 91+ octane and will stay in 3-cylinder mode longer; if you do highway driving, you may see improved MPG using 91+ octane.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: So how does this work, what happens when I place an order?
A: We have a supply of used computer modules in stock. When you order, we select the computer module identical your vehicle's factory computer, and they are reprogrammed with our performance calibration. These computers are then mailed to you, to swap for your existing factory computer modules.
You then have the option to return your original computer modules for the core charge refund. We use your factory computer modules to reprogram to ship to someone else. If you wish to keep your factory computer modules, we use your refundable core charge to purchase replacements for our inventory.
You are responsible for your own shipping charges and for returning the computers within the alloted time of 45 days after ordering to recieve your refund. The computers will need to be undamaged and in working order or your refund may be reduced or denied.
You may be required to have a CASE or Crank Position Sensor Relearn performed to match the new computer module to your engine. This can be done at a GM dealer or independant shop with appropriate scantool and the average cost reported to us is $30.

Q: I've never purchased off the internet before, or I'm located in the United States and never purchased from another country before, what can I expect?
A: No problem. Our checkout system uses Paypal, a company owned by Ebay. Through paypal, you will enter your shipping details and can pay by credit card or a bank transfer. Your financial details are secure with paypal, they are not transmitted to us.
We love shipping to fellow Canadians but we do the majority of our online business with United States car enthusiasts. We ship primarily with UPS. Transit time takes 2-5 business days to anywhere in continental Canada or United States. We ship twice per week, your order will on average take 2-3 business days to ship. If we do not have your computers in inventory, we will email you, and please allow up to an additional 3-7 business days to procure the computers that match your vehicle.

Q: How does your performance calibration compare to others, why buy from you?
A: 1) Our attention to detail. We've been tuning the "W-Body" platform and all its powertrains as long as anybody and longer most. Many tuners tune many different types of vehicles and don't take the time to drive the vehicles on the street for hours, days or even weeks in order to find areas of improvement that will make the car more enjoyable to drive. We do, infact this is our primary focus, and we specialize in only a few select vehicles in order to provide the kind of top quality computer tuning that we expected to purchase as a consumer. Everyone who purchases a 3500 computer tune will be driving their cars daily under normal driving circumstances, and that's where improvements in our calibration over others will be very noticeable.
2) Other shops have tuned V8 motors for years but how many have tuned GM V6s and how many tune 4T65E transmissions? Very few, more than likely. How many "custom tunes" leave the transmission settings completely factory, because they don't have the experience to improve upon its settings? Very many, more than likely. Specializing in 3800 computer tuning for years, we've developed our own fluid pressure tables and shift point tables for the computer to better control these transmissions and we've applied that knowledge to the 3900 computer tunes. This not only fixes issues such as the super soft and laggy 2-3 shifts we've experienced in some 3900 Impalas, and will help prevent issues in future, but our transmission tuning makes the car much more fun to drive!
3) The price. With the level of effort and expertise that has gone into an Overkill 3900 PCM for a price nearly half that of most competition, we feel we are definitely the value advantage.



Please Note: This aftermarket performance enhancing product is officially for "off-road" use only. Emission testing performance is not affected in most cases but we offer no guarantee of our tune being street-legal.
Please be advised there are no returns on these computers for any reason. If you do not like a specific aspect of our calibration, email us within 30 days of recieving and we can provide a retune of the computer we sent you at no retune charge, just pay shipping back to us and we will pay the shipping back to you. The computer module is warrantied for 90 days for replacement of the defective unit only with a similar unit.
