Default Self-Tune after Header install

What is a good source to tune my own WS6 after the header-ORY install? Software for laptop or handheld?

HP Tuners all tha way........costs more then a handheld but you'll be much happier down the road if you start heavily modding your car.

I'm going to throw a small wrench into this and say EFI Live. I picked up my copy almost 2 years ago and I couldn't be happier. The upgrades, service, support and user-friendliness of EFI Live are 2nd to none IMO. Check 'em both out and decide for yourself though...

HP Tuners or EFILive are the best options for tuning suites. Forget the handheld since they do not have capabilities of the software tuning packages.
