What Is This Service?

You remove the PCM from your vehicle and ship it to us. We modify the calibration and ship it back ready to install.

This service deletes/disables the Vehicle Anti-Theft System (VATS) in GM P01 and P59 engine control modules. These PCMs were used on 1999–2006 GM car, truck and SUV platforms including Camaro, Corvette, Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, Yukon, Escalade, Suburban, and many other GM vehicles.

Both Drive By Cable (DBC) and Drive By Wire (DBW) applications are supported.

1) VATS ONLY

• Basic VATS removal (disable theft deterrent / fix crank no-start condition).

2) BASIC SERVICE – Good for Engine Swaps

• VATS removal
• Engine swap diagnostics cleanup (unused sensors disabled)
• Cam Swap Base Calibration – increase idle rpm, airflow settings, and ignition timing.
  • Not final, but ideal for startup and shakedown testing (it won’t stall out once warmed up)
• Basic settings edits (speed limiter removal, fan settings, etc.)
• Not a final dyno tune — intended as a base file to get the vehicle running so you can start the tuning process.
• Order and pay first, then complete the VATS Delete Custom Tune Order Form

3) MORE POWER! – PREMIUM GEN 3 LS TUNE

Includes everything in the Basic Service plus:

• Ignition timing optimization
• Air fuel ratio improvements
• Power enrichment adjustments

• Estimated gains with premium 91/93 octane fuel:
