    Default Spare ECM?

    In general, I'm wondering if it is worthwhile to buy a spare ECM to program and keep the stock ECM stock?

    If you're still under a warranty & need to take it in for any repair/TSB work, than yes. It also never hurts to have another one handy that works & has already done the CASE relearn. In a pinch, you could always swap them out to get your truck running.

    I have a spare upgraded module along with the original that came with the truck.
    1999 Tahoe LT, 4x4, 5.7

    315x75x16 BFG A/T's on 16x10, Doug Thorley Tri-Y Headers, Borla dual exhaust, 6" Pro Comp lift, JDK tail lights, Grizzly tail light guards, grill/brush guard, Pilot lights, 4.56 gears, SSBC Force 10 brake kit, tru-trac, ProCharger, BlackBear Performance Tune, 255 lph intank Walbro, 12200411 pcm swap.

    In Progress:
    - Intake swap with 44# LS3 injectors & 0411 pcm tune
    - 2002 Denali XL: MP112 comins soon!
