They are only good for changing the setting of your fans for 160* t-stat or changing the wheel/tire size and finding the codes your car is throwing out.
Other then that if you want a tune then find someone with HPtuners or EFIlive or LS1edit. Then pay them some money to tune your car.

I got terrible gas mileage. Somewhere about 10-12mpg without even getting on it.
I reset it (unloaded my vin) and sold that with a granatelli maf (that came on my car as well) for like $100 bucks on here after I got the car.
After a few days my car felt faster and I got better mpg without the HPP3 program and granatelli maf in it.
Part of the reason I would never reccomend a granatelli maf because I am sure that itself was the cause of my bad gas mileage and probably what killed one of my cats.
This was after I unloaded the HPP3.

But the benefits are endless. Especially if you know of others in your area that need tunes. It would pay for itself in no time.
