Nice car! I loved my LT1. Yours looks exactly like the LT1 that I just traded in too.

CAI alone does practically nothing but adding a small bit of intake noise. As to tuning, most folks use HP Tuners with our 6th gens, this is the best and most comprehensive option.

They just started selling their 3rd gen models (MPVI3), alas, the software that comes with is more limited in terms of emission related configuration, my MPVI2 still works with the older unlimited software versions...

So the new version of the hptuner can't do as much? Would it be best to try and find a older one to buy
