Stock ecu. LS1 pcms are pretty good for tuning 2-3 bar support. I didnt get to run the lt1 to long because I redid the steam line and it didnt it and over pressurized the heads. Live and learn I guess. The ls1 t56 is fun, but the gear ratio isnt gonna like me lol. I have a set of 3.50s to throw back in there that I took out because NA they werent fun.
