If you are going to play with the car, invest in HP Tuners, LS-1 Edit, etc. You can tune as well as scan for codes and problems.

I have HPtuners and I love it. So powerful to do pretty much anything you want. I got mine used for $400 with 6 credits left. An awesome investment for $400, just keep your eyes open for a used one with some credits left.
