Default need help on a 2005 c6 programer

my grandpa is wanting to wake up his car a little bit it is a 05 c6 automatic. he is wanting to get rid of the torque management and get a little more power out of it.
He is wanting a programer and an intake for it. I was wondering what everyone would recomend for it do the programers even take away the torque management
just wondering what you guys would recomend any input would be nice

If you eliminate the torque management function, you may reduce the life of the transmission. I am in the opposite situation, my wife has an 05 GTO, I just put on a TVS 2300, I am trying to reduce power in 1st (to reduce tire spin at the dragstrip) and in 4th (because 4th is very weak on the 4L65e)

If you purchase HPTuners, you can increase/decrease/eliminate many parameters, including torque management.

I just got it, and I can assure you that it is very easy to learn, and somewhat addictive.
