30rwhp is doubtful... don't always believe manufacturer claims (maybe 30hp over the GM rated HP, but the cars are already underrated from the factory )

the Vinci tuner is a Crane tuner w/custom tunes in it I believe, and seems to be pretty popular...

However overall you're much better w/a full tuning suite or a dyno tune for max horsepower (handhelds are just guess work... not every car is the same, not every car has the same mods, etc... )

well, the 30 rwhp depends on what you have done. i know of a person that did gain 58 rwhp. he posted it on ls2.com maybe here. thing was, he had a mail order tune to start off with.

here's mine back when the wife's car had a stock cam with ported heads and most bolt ons.

I have one and i like it a lot, but horist is right don't go by what they say. i can't tell you it made a big difference in my 01 ta. By the way does anyone think I should put a 160 thermostate with having a tune and then turn the fan temp down?
