    'hp tuner' is what your tuner would use. you could buy it for yourself and deal with all the various calibrations or just pay to get it done for cheaper

    I have mine from wait4meperformace. But I've heard really good things about nelson performance. I may even go that route myself if i don't do a live tune from some guys up in Denver.

    just get a Nelson tune and be done with it.

    unless u plan in making a small career out of HP tuners is a waste in your situation. I have seen 4 vehicles including my own gain 1-3 MPG from his tunes
    2006 Silverado aka (Bad Bitch)
    K&N CAI, Diablo Predator, muffler delete, and a vette servo. 14.7x @ 93 mph (sold)

    1998 SS Camaro aka (Silver Bullet)
    LS6 intake, ported TB, LTs, ORY, cut out, and a pantie dropping tune by Nelson. 12.6 @ 110 mph 327 hp 347 tq

    2011 ecsb silverado aka (silver sleeper)
    forged 6.2 and a small snail

    That will be the best mod ever. My truck was a turd from the factory but nelson put his mag8c hands on it with a tune and made a world of difference performance wise and mpg wise. If ur like me it will be too much fun and wont be able to keep your foot out of it but if you can it will be worth it.


    4.8, TSP 220, 6L90 swap, 3400 Stall, 4.10s w/30" drag radial and T76 @ 16lbs.
    Best ET 11.54@114 w 1.52 60ft
