Default Engine management for the C6?

I know it is a bit premature, but I am wondering if there is going to be any aftermarket engine management offered for the C6 like LS1 edit (not like Predator).

I am questioning this as this business won't be as lucrative for aftermarket engine management manufacturers, as the f-body is not around any more.

I believe that the C6 will incorporate OBD2 and not OBD3.

Default Re: Engine management for the C6? (AJC5)

The C6 will imploy OBD-II monitoring systems. There is very little reason for the C6 to not get programmers and such, as the LS2 will become the new base for the LSx based motors over the next few years. The SSR(super slow retro) is coming with a 395hp/395ft-lb LS2 next year to try and save face and it is rumored the GTO may be seeing a detuned version of the motor as well. The trucks will also be based off of this motor, as the DoD system is specifically designed into the valley area of the LS2. I imagine there will be a bit of a learning curve for the new PCM, but you will see tuners and custom tuning in a reasonable period of time.
