What to expect from a tune?

I don't know about your LT1, but my LS1 only has bolt ons and I had it tuned last Wed. I didn't realize how much of a diiference it would make. Overall drivability improved a bunch. So much, in fact, the wife even commented on how much better it ran. And if she notices it, it had to be a significant increase. As far as HP gains, I'm going to the local dragstrip tomorrow night to see if my money was well spent or not. I think it was!!

LT1's are a good bit different then LS1's....little to no TM stuff to deal with...you can mess with fuel & timing a bit as well as shift points but theres a lot less to play with.
