[QUOTE="not2melo, post: 2103, member: 90"] I think on a stock vette be it C5/6 you would get about 10hp out of a good tune. It might feel like more then that in a automatic as they can change the torque management and change your shiftpoints etc and this can make a big difference in drivability. If you are adding a new cam or other power adders then a tune can help get all the HP out of your new components that you would not without a tune (full optimization). The PCM only has so much adjustment that it can compensate with beyond that we need to use EFI live or HP Power tuners etc to tweak in the timing, fuel maps, torque management etc. I think stock automatic cars have the most to benifit from a good tune. There are other benifits also like killing CAGS and turning the two radiator fans on at earlier temps to keep things cooler, kill error codes for cat's etc. $600 sounds a little steep for a tune, but then that does depend on how they are doing the process by either road tune and/or dyno tune or there is even mail order tunes now that should save you a few bucks.
