I'm not a fan of sending an ECU off and having it guestimated while it's off the car. A true dyno tune is the only way to go IMO.

+1 A good street tune will suffice as well

Hes sending it off to be chipped, not tuned. They dont chip your computer on a dyno, they tune the program that was installed on the chipped ECU that you sent off.

RE: Ls turbo maps

Thats what I did, I got a base map so I could drive the car to the tune shop. I didn't even start my car till I had a semi tuned computer in it. It would probly be alright for a while but a real tune is still needed.
