Default Best Tuning Tool

Hey all whats up I need some suggestions....I have a 2002 SS that is bone stock right now in the next year it will have headers, o/r y, and a cat back, as well as a lid, filter, smooth bellows, and a tune. I was wanting to get some opinions on tuners....what do all of you like? Let the suggestions begin, I will have the car on a dyno to have it tuned, was looking at going either Predator or SCT, I know about the LS1 Edit and HP but I don't know much about them....shoot me some suggestions....thanks all.

Jeff

Do you like blondes or brunettes?? It's all subjective and matter of preference. On here you will get an overwhelming response for HPT or EFI. Not much support for predator and such anymore as most people here are more heavily modded.

Do your research, flip a coin, and go with your choice knowing you got the best of what's to offer on the market.

Thanks to those that helped and actually gave a suggestion for anyone else don't post if you are just going to be a smart ***. I am new to the site and didn't see the stickies.

No attitude at all guys, I would just appreciate someone just telling me about them with some of the attitude or sarcasm thats all. Not here to make any waves or enemies just looking for some input/experiences that people have had that necessarily wouldn't be put on the stickies....

Shoot me a PM if you have any questions about EFILive. Hands down the best package IMO!

either package will get the job done well...for the money those handhelds are going for,your better off with a full software package along with a wideband...

i chose efilive(V1) for the simple reason it was a good deal in the for sale section...
i would have bought hptuners at the time if it was available...
