when my car was stock my hypertech done great a noticeable low end tourqe gain,however its alot cheaper to get a mail order tune done.WAIT4ME is a sponsor and is really good and great price.

ps you have to get a programmer a tune or software such as efi live hp tuners or ls1edit.our cars dont use chips

these cars have no "chips" its all handheld tunners that arent really worth the time of day. a mail order or dyno tune is your best bet

and also, theres no point in having a tune done till you get some worthwhile mods done. try a search and read the stickies, they have a lot of valuable info

i have a diablosport tuner and it works great for me. I had it dyno tuned with it and it made a noticable improvement on the dyno and seat of pants.

If you want to keep your car stock you can get a tune, If you get it to run only on 91 octaine and a few other changes will give you probally 10-20 HP

I moved your first thread to the PCM/Tuning section. Go check in there.
