It's pretty much as the title says, has anyone tried this on thier ZO6 and if so did you notice an improvement? (91 octane fuel).

I posted this in the scan and tune and got no response. Most everyone in that section perfers the custom tunes which I agree with if I was looking for the most (HP) I could get, but I want to be able to return it to stock myself if it needs to be brought in for service.

I would not waste my money on one of those hand-held tuners.

I was watching Horsepower TV the other day a bone stock C6 Z06 got 439rwhp and then the put a Hypertech or i could be wrong some hand held tuner and got 460rwhp. I still would never get a hand held and now a days these companies claiming you get 20-40 rwhp off tuners ya if you have a supercharged or turbo car or truck and that has many possibilities but my own experience on N/A cars the best is dyno tune especially when its about the same if not less.

I saw the same episode and it was very impressive if you ask me. However it was on a c6 z06 and not a c5
