You don't need an aftermarket controller or a paddle shifter. Just call or email LS1Edit and get info on your closest tuner. The only disadvantage to getting it tuned as opposed to buying the software is that you will not be able to fine tune the calibration over numerous attempts. But you should be able to get waaaay closer than you are now in about 15 minutes. Better to invest in calibration than to pay for repairs.
Paddle shifter and controller for your fuel injected engine runs about $1200 less the 5% Lateral-g Club discount. It's a lot of coin, but it will completely transform your vehicle. Bill Howell's car felt like it had a 307 2bbl with one missing plug wire when I got into it. When I got out, it felt like the bad ass blown LS1 that it is. And we never touched the engine calibration.
I've tuned a bunch of these things over the phone. The record tune-up was with a guy in Denmark. But Bill's car was the first housecall I ever made. It was really cool to see the look on Bill's face each time I made a big change.
