Default New Tuning using iPad/iPhone

I just found this online. Wireless Vehicle Tuning, On-Screen Virtual Gauges, Built-In Performance Tests, Reads & Clears DTC Codes, ect. They won Top SEMA prize for 2012 Best Performance Product Award. Is this legit? Anyone try this? Here is the link.

It says "Whether you drive a high performance 2012 Mustang, a Corvette or a Ford / GM gas or diesel truck, iTSX is available for your vehicle."

Sorry for my ignorance, but can tuning such as this truly change the performance of a car?
i'm not familiar at all with the whole tuning thing.

Just purchase my first C5 one week ago. (very stock/few mods)

I downloaded the app and its pretty cool. You can provide them with your info, mods, ect. And they create custom tunes for you, unlimited for free. You can also create custom tunes your self. But the big question is, has anyone tried this? It looks pretty legit.

It's not available for the C5. Only 2005 or newer GM vehicles.
