I have a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue with the 3.8L 3800 series II (L36) engine and 4T65E (M15) transmission. It is a W-Body car, so it shares the exact same powertrain as a Buck Regal or Pontiac Grand Prix of the same year. I am hoping to do a top-swap with the motor to supercharge it. I will either go with the ZZP SS m90 kit ( https://www.zzperformance.com/grand_prix/products1.php?id=382&catid=109 ), or just a traditional top-swap. I am leaning more towards the ZZp kit as of now. I know for a fact I will need a tuned PCM, the problem is is that no company I have come across yet sells a tuned PCM for the Intrigue. In theory, could you buy a tuned PCM for a Regal or Grand Prix, and it would run in my car fine? I am assuming this because it is called a "Powertrain Control Module", so it should only affect the engine, transmission, and differential. I really need help with this question, because it has been bugging me for months. I emailed ZZP, and I was told that I would need to send them a PCM with the files so they could tune it because "files are model specific" is what he said. I am not sure if they are just pulling my leg to get more money out of me for a custom tune. Thanks in advance for any info on this question.
