With the Hypertech and most likely the Predator when you download the program it saves your stock settings to easily download when you take it in for service...they won't even know about it. ;)

The best thing about those tools is the shift point adjustments, and since the Z is an M6, you might want to look at LS1-Edit. The programmers can do timing retard, CAGS skip, but I think the LS1-Edit is such a better deal for a Z06 owner. You will need a computer by the way, preferably a laptop, so that you can drive around a take measurements and such. I personally don't have LS1-Edit, my buddy does, and I have used and seen it in action. I am a fan.
