Just curious... last time I went NA on my Camaro but the C7 SC options look intriguing. There are some nicely developed packages both PD and centri (I am leaning centri). My question is about the tuning. If I do this I would probably go with one of the "standard" centri packages (not going to really push the envelope so I can maintain durability) like ECS or A&A. It seems to me like these should have a standard tune (a C7 is a C7 is a C7) so do these guys supply a tune for DIY installs and a device to install it? Or do you need to visit a tuner for a custom tune?

We supply tune files with the purchase of our kit. I see you are fairly close to us also so we can check it over after you are done with the install too.

Sounds good, Doug, thanks for the reply. What device does one need to install the file? On my old car we used a laptop with LT1 Edit or TunerCat. I assume there is something similar for C7?

The Procharger kit includes a Diablo InTune handheld tuner w/tune.

Most people doing their own install purchase HP tuners so they can log the car afterwards, then I just email a tune file. Or you can mail in the ECM when you start your install, I turn them around the same day received.
That way a hand held programmer does not need to be purchased, which is an additional expense from others.
