I'm seeing a few people around here that are using the DHP pcm.
Just wondering... What kind of performance increase do you see? Any other improvements to speak of?

It really depends on the level of modifications you have. a stock motor will see very little improvement.

What's recommended for the most improvement for a reasonable price tag?

It depends on reasonable in your mind
You could spend $800 on Manifolds and a TB and gain very little since they work wel with other mods, and not too good by itself
A good start is intake and exhaust, a good intake won't be more than $200 and SLP has a nice exhaust for less than $500 shipped. Figure on $100 or so to install

or you can do a custom exhaust for 250ish, which is what i chose to do. DHP PCM's are programmed for 180 degree t-stats, CAI and Catback exhaust, but beyound that, headers, U/L-PnP intakes, and larger throttlebodies will benefit even more.
Its all about money!

unless i have been in a comma for the past couple of months jackal has never made mention of headers. Either he is waiting to surprise everyone with some pics from the dyno or he is just seeing what the dhp will do with his current mods
