Welcome. No chips. Get a tune. Most popular are Trifecta and HPTuners. Look into those.

what kind of gains are you going to get stock with a tune?
Do the Le5's come restricted from GM? can you really "un-can" the LE5?

can tune means is basically a "one tune fits all" tune. Basically it's what a tuning chip on say a diesel truck is, also a way of referring to the stock tune since they are all the same. A trifecta tune is a custom tune hand programmed specifically for your car. No two cars, even with the same engines stock, will run EXACTLY the same.

Pringles are the best. Once they pop, they don't stop so it builds power all the way to redline.
