Default Upgrading Computer? More power/Custom;Which one?

Anyone recommend certain user friendly or better range function system.

I want to adjust certain areas for more custom power.

I'm considering upgrading my computer or chip system on my 03' C-5 M-6. I recently returned from Ecklers Reunion and got somewhat confused on which system to purchase.

Right now I have only these current mods:
Intake, no cats offroad bypassed, exhaust upgade in the box, 3:90 gears, low temp. 170 thermo and 1-2 shift eliminator.
Now the near future: LT headers TPIS, head and cam work; and then possible supercharger! Yeah...

Now which one would be better for me and what is what?
There are so many different systems:
LS1 Edit, Power Programer Hyper Tech, Diablo, and several others.

Which one is better and value/price in mind.
Thanx> :chevy

With what you have right now, you really don't need any upgrade, but with the mods you're planning, LS1 Edit is the only way to go, but only if you know what you're doing. Otherwise, get a shop to dyno tune it.
