    REP is a fail safe mode for vehicles with ETC. Does it have traction control with an ETC? That is the only way a 01 Silverado would have ETC. TPS is reading 100% when? Any codes when it goes into REP?

    Tuned several of the tall deck 450CI+ World LS Blocks with stock PCMs. Just time consuming vs using a Holley
