Hotwire PCM questions

Hey Riddler, did you end up deciding on a computer? Without hi-jacking your thread, I just had a tune done locally on my car and they used HP Tuners. It sorted out the almost stall condition (mostly) and seems to catch itself a lot quicker now when pulling up to a stop. I STILL have cold start issues and they told me the HP Tuners software was limited for it in that regards and that they take some timing up in order to warm up the catalytic converters to help with it passing emissions. I would have thought all of this would be programmable and be able to be changed?! Once it warms up it sorts itself out, but it is pissing me off that an EFI engine I have to wait to warm up! I hope you have some better luck.
