Yes it will tune just about everything that one needs to tune on an ls1 engine. Im not sure how much you know about tuning and engines in general but tuning is not as easy as it may appear.

you will be able to tune in the trans functions (shiftpoints, firmness, tcc lockup, tq management, etc... etc...)

you can tune in mostly any engine function that matters. make the car idle like stock, improve gas milage (i don't know how but im sure you could), tune your a/f ratio to perfection, timing, - everything.

dunno- but im completly happy that i bought hptuners. i've been dissed on this site for "wasting my $" on something that doesn't really make the car any faster (but in your case it will since you have alot of modifications).

yes- you need a labtop.

look on hptuners.com (go on the forum) for all of your information. i rarely use ls1tech.com for hptuners advice.
