Default 98 5.7 TA Diablosport I-1000 wont read. Whats my best option

Bought my first LS powered vehicle. 98 Trans Am mostly stock CAI, cat back.Working ram air, performs well. No codes just minor issues. Car sat a while before I got it. Bought a Diablosport I-1000 tuner but it will not read this ecu. I`m about to freshen the heads and do a little port clean up while I`m there and install GM hot cam lifters and springs. I`m going to upgrade to some high flow cats and build a better exhaust. What can I expect as far as tuning changes needed with that cam and a better flowing exhaust? Whats the best way to tune since my diablosport wont read this 98 ecu. Can I go with a later ECU that it will read or just bite the bullet and buy a different tuning setup like HP or some other? Anyone have some suggestions. I`m a professional tech and former automotive instructor but my experience is primarily european so I could use some practicle advise. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think the Diablosport I-1000 tuner only does 99 and up f-bodys... Hp Tuners is great and should work for you, and offer more options than the Diablosport.

As mentioned, we don't support the 98 PCM unfortunately.

Good luck with your other options.

Thanks
