If you removed AIR and EGR and have an ORY, it's probably throwing codes and you'll atleast need to get those tuned out. But, a tune never hurts to have, so you might as well get one. Go with whichever one is cheaper or closer. From what I've heard, you can't go wrong with either one really. I'm going to go with MadZ28, just because they're only about 2 hours away and I can drive there to have it done.

Go with Brian at PCMFORLESS he does a great job. Pulled an exta 15 hp from his tune on the dyno. Be sure to get the LT4 knock module put on too.

Hit up a local shop there. I would never recommend a mail order tune unless its for very small things (deleting things) and such.

Sorry but thats garbage can. Mail order tunes are perfectly fine. His mod list isn't that radical.

You will be fine with a mail order. Pcmforless hooked me up good and have put several miles on the car and runs great!
