Default LT1 Edit...? Tuner Cat?

Where can you find these tuners? Or would you just recommend getting a "mail order tune?"

I've heard better thing about tunercat, but I've only seen HPtuners in action, so when I spend $69.00 on this, they said they would give me a "keycode?"
And an extra $10 for it to be on a CD-Rom.
Am I looking at the right section.(the page looks so plain and old) lol

you have to buy the cable..the definition file ,which is year specific... and of course the tunercats software. i think all together i spent 130.00ish last month and love it....great price and pretty user friendly...ohh yeah i found out the hard way that microsoft spreadsheet makes it alllllooott!! easier to read your datalog file

Well I've never personally used a tuner before. How user friendly is it?

You have to know what certain terms mean and what they do. if you have a good understanding on what the sensors do on a LT1 and how to interpret(sp) them you should be fine.

I'm looking into the same thing, and I thought TunerCats Website was rather old and shady looking myself.

I'd like to go ahead and buy all the software and such but I'm kinda scared I won't understand what I'm doing...
