Anyone had their pcm flashed with KRc's Cam Cal ?

I'm not sure what you mean by "cam cal" but I had my PCM flashed by them right after I put the 206 cams in.. Can't really give exact numbers, as I went back to the track with all three new mods (cams, PCM, intake manifold) but, those three, plus some nicer weather, took me from 14.9/15.0 down to 14.07/14.1x....Like 1200 bucks in parts, but a damn nice gain for 1200 bucks I do believe..

Finally got to make a pass at the strip with my new cams. This is a 03 4.7 NV3500 3.92LSD XLT CC with a Flowmaster and an Airraid filter system as the only other mods. Carrying all the stock equipment (spare, tailgate, rhino lining...) and the 6500 lb rated trailer hitch I just installed, on the factory tires:

60' 2.337
330' 6.32
1/8th 10.262 MPH 68.83
1000' 13.354
1/4 15.987 MPH 85.37

This was the first and only pass so far this season. I was admittedly a little slow with my shifts and babyed it off the line to help hold traction. My BEST time before the cam swap was 16.6. Question is, Besides the obvious "Get better tires and drop some weight", what's next that will give me the greatest improvement? Is there an effective PCM flash for my set up?
I don't want to do any more inside the motor and I'd rather shy away from Nitrous (I'm concerned about motor life in my daily driver whether I'm justified or not). Blower (read: bling bling) is out of my reach.
It seems to fade really fast above 4500-4800 RPM. My power band seems to start at 2200-2500 RPM. One of these days I'll spend the $70 it will cost me to get it on the dyno at the local speed shop.

This from their web site,
"KRC Performance Cam Cal

Send your controller into KRC for the KRC Cam Cal. This calibration is for any 318/360/408 OBD2 PCM and offers aggressive spark curves, reduced idle fuel trims, raised shift points, deletion of torque management and higher rev limits for your built Magnum that go beyond the Mopar calibration. Less than one week turnaround time.

$489 "

Anyone had this done ?

Unfortunately, that's not me or I'd sure give it a try.
