Curious as to why hpt isn't sufficient for you? I am a former ls1edit user and am very happy with hp tuners.

The only two that I know of as of now are LS2 Edit and HP tuners. LS2 Edit released 2008 support in Version 2.0.
I believe EFI Live is still only for 2005 or E40 ECM's.

I think that includes the LS2 Edit interface and software that you will have to have to install the tune at home with out sending in your ECM.
That way he can e-mail you tweeks and you can also edit it yourself any time down the road.

$999.00 includes the LS2Edit Tuner (software, hardware, and license for 1 LS2 or LS3) $550.00 if purchased directly from Carputing.com
The tuning is done by email, and includes two additional free updates when additional mods are done.

We have HP Tuners software and charge $550 for full dyno tuning. You will always get a better result from dyno tuning.

Mike Norris travels to HorsePower Sales in your area.
We also can tune the 08's with HP Tuners.

One more point. I have done 285 Z06s by emailTUNE all over the world. It's pretty hard to dyno tune from here to Germany, but I have dyno proven tunes that we send to many countries, and do Katech's cam tuning on these rides wherever they are.
If you are close to a tuner and a dyno, that would be my first choice too. That's a no brainer since a good dyno has the advantage of the tuning right there and can be modified on the spot.
Having said that, we have also dyno tuned a few Z06s, by emailTUNE and did it right on the dyno through the customer's wi-fi broadband connection.
I have also tuned a Z06 in the Museum parking lot by Wi-Fi emailTUNE.
Cool huh?

Here is one we did in Sweden. Our Swedish customer Congaman represented the US and did a throwdown on a Porsche Carrera GT, Mercedes Mclaren SLR, and a Kellener's 575 RWHP BMW.
Here is a link to the video:
