Tuning (in Texas) you have two choices: Cobb or Uprev
Uprev does a full new ROM which allows them to load three or four custom setups: Power, valet mode, stock, <1k RPM
Cobb I think does a wipe but just one map, but not 100% sure

Uprev has stated they will no be working on VVEL currently while Cobb is working on it. Opening VVEL is meant to give us good access to some nice tuning changes, but no one knows yet exactly what it will do.

I think he will enjoy basic bolt ons, even if he plans on dumping them down the road for forced induction parts. One thing I would mention is to look at getting supporting mods if he is 100% forced induction route, many of which do not hurt having early. Things like oil cooling, upgrading the brakes (pads/fluids/lines), wheels & tires, etc. Those items you will not replace down the road, will help now and in the future.
