    pretty sure you need laptop regradless ??? load the bin file into tune program and as long as everything is fine (no modifications needed) you can just upload to the pcm

    First:
    connect cable to vehicle and start tunetool,
    select your contoller (is it 1999-2008 LS1 PCM...?),
    read the flash (Flash->Read PCM Calibratioon),
    save to file (File->Save tune as),
    turn ign key off for at least 15 seconds,

    Then do the following only if the read was successful:
    copy the email tune file to My Documents\EFILive\V7.5\Bins,
    open the tunetool,
    open that file,
    open as alternate file your stock tune file (File->Load Alternate)... you must have presviously done this,
    compare the two (File->Display Calibration Differences),
    if they can be compared, and if the changes are safe, then proceed,
    turn ign key on and restart tunetool (and open email file),
    do a cal-only flash (Flash->Program PCM Calibrations), it should take less than 30 seconds,
    when flash has finished, turn off ign key off for at least 15 seconds.
