Had a lot of fun at my track day. I let him drive my car on the parade laps, he wasn't expecting that and loved it.
Anyways ...
My previous LS swap I used someone to do the programming and a standalone harness. Tuning wasn't right, and they weren't really tuner. I then paid a real tuner for a custom tune and it was a very slow, frustrating process and I hate paying twice for something. Buy once, cry once.
This time I've decided that between the two of us we're going to do the tune ourselves.
I keep going back and forth between the Holley Terminator Max and HP Tuners.
The Holley just looks easier all around. The only thing stopping me is I would like to keep ABS, but one of the TM's outputs can be a VSS signal which should in theory allow me to run ABS. Personally I don't like the later OBS gauges, and he probably would prefer the holley LED screen over the factory gauges anyway.
On the other hand there's something to be said for cheap and going the hard way is a good learning tool. Also I don't think anyone is going to break into his truck to steal a factory gauge cluster.
