It tunes the car.
If you don't know how to use it...don't buy it. Just have a shop tune your car. Tune probably isn't worth much power if there are no mods done.

Well...I don't know if I would say that tune on a stock car wouldn't help. I tuned Justin's car(guy I know from NJ who is going to Drexel) when all he had was 373s and a catback. His Gtech time when down around 1/2 second if I remember correctly. Then again he had an automatic and the torque management was killing him(btw, if you haven't done so already, put a value of 650 in there). He said just doing that he noticed a huge difference. Also his timing went from 28~>31 with a little more fuel that car was haulin'. 1st gear roll @ 10mph, and him punching it, the tires were actually about to break loose. From the time I started tuning it to the time I was finished, it was a big difference. Obviously having mods are a lot more fun/gain from a tune, but stock you can definately tap out more power.

If you have a good LS1 shop near you, have them do a tune. Or if you know someone with LS1edit/HPTuners, let them change your gear ratio/shift points/torque management/dial your injectors in exactly, add some timing and adjust the fuel in the PE(power enrichment). not sure where you are at but that's what I would say. Don't need a dyno tune but a tune is better then no tune especially with gears and that you have an auto.

Re: Ls1 Edit?
A good dyno tune will run $450+. Normally closer to $550.
A good base performance tune can be around $200. With your mods...I would do it. I would probably lean towards the performance tune. If you were an M6...I would say just have them adjust for the gears.
