Default computer tune c6 2006

I recently had a computer engine /trans tune by Chuck at Corvettes of Westchester. The car feels like he shaved 500 pounds off it. Much more responsive, much quicker. Improved gas mileage. Thanks.

Did you do the mail in tune or did you take the Vette directly to Chuck.
