had one also, sold it and bought lt1 edit. just dont know how to tune all that well but it was a much better investment, you can load the hypertech copy it w lt1 edit, unload it sell it and reload the same tune with lt1 edit w more tuning options

I bought a hypertech for my LT1 and the only difference I could tell was the reving was much more easier, what I like best was being able to control other things like rev limiter,gear shifts,fans,etc.. but I dont think its worth the money. I sold mine on ebay.(I'm surprised someone even bought that thing)

Mine is locked to my car with the VIN, I don't think anyone else can use mine.
