The GMPP tune solved these issues, it's consistent and locks much faster on-throttle which allows for better rotation, and you know exactly what it's going to do every time. The OEM diff doesn't lock enough in some situations, my friend's non-1LE spins up one wheel in some circumstances.

The GMPP diff tune does require some adjustment to the handling balance though. I can't imagine anyone preferring the OEM ediff tune over the GMPP tune, it obviously worked well for GM's team, but to each his own.
Stock tune probably also contributes to my lazier turn in.
Dave, on a side note, remember when we talked about the cost of the tune? A guy up in NoCal just got it done. Cost $730! Gm charged 280 but dealer charged 450 for 1.5 hours. Didn’t think they were to charge extra, customer beware I guess
