Default PCM Tunning (Who to Use???)

When I had my LT1 I had PCMforless do my tunning and I was TOTALLY please with them....has anyone used them to tune your LS1 or is it better to just do a Dyno Tune???

If you think that your motor is exactly the same as every other ls-1, then by all means, get a mail order tune. If your motor might be slightly different, or, if you want to extract all the possible power from it, get HPtuners. I also hear that flashscan has a good tuning tool now, but I haven't tried it. My point is that with a little bit of work, you can do better than any "canned" mail-order tune. PCMforless, nelson, fastchips, and everyone else has some good tuners working for them, but nothing can compare to writing your own tune for your own engine. Besides, working on this **** is almost as fun as driving it.
