anyone who could give me some thoughts or ideas on what to expect from this after all the mods i have feel free to chime in

basically... do the ends justify the means...
If you have all those breathing mods and dont have a tune your car could actually be running worse than stock. I noticed a huge difference after I got my Z UpRev'd. Throttle response was way up and I could def feel more torque in mid rmps. As well as more power all around. To me, if you have already invested in alll those breather mods its a no brainer, TUNE IT!!!!
