Let me know if you have any questions related to our tuners.
They work well and will offer a great performance improvement.

I am a fan of the vararam on the C5, haven't used it on the C6.

Yes we support both devices.
I3 is a great middle ground device, especially being on sale currently.


Thanks

I used my i3 I had purchased for my Silverado, just added a tune license for an extra vehicle. Worked great on my 2006. I set the 2006 back to stock and then tuned my 2016, great results with it also. Really woke up the transmission shifting as well. Quick and firm, like it should be from the factory. My wife has a Buick if I want to drive a slushbox.

Yes, I can definitely get you hooked up with the correct version Diablosport inTune or Trinity programmer and custom tune for your car... I've done thousands of these cars over the years.... I am a GM guy myself and I only tune GM vehicles...

For more info about the programmers, the custom tuning, the process, etc... you can email me directly at: diablo DOT help AT gmail DOT com

Thank you!
