Default Tune Chips.

I just bought a 2005 C6 with KOOKS headers, high flow cats and Borla exhaust. The tune is causing my check enginge light to trip because of an O2 error. I was wondering if anyone has advice through experience on the best tune chip to run to correct this error and gain some HP. I have been told Diablo and Superchips but in some cases performance of the chip is car specific. is this true?

I have the same problem and a tune by a reputable tuner is the recommendation. The dealer doesn't seem to be able to fix it but a good tuner who specializes in Corvettes can take care of it. Probably cost in the neighborhood of $500 but in the end it might be worth it.
