Make note this cookie cutter tuned to handle both high desert heat to low Canadian snow to Seattle's endless rain.

Whenever you change anything to aftermarket parts, you're deviating from the original manufacture specs where the manufacturer set it to handle wide variety of environments.

If you know you're not cross country from Canada to Mexico and just leaving your car within your environment, a tune will definitely increase both power and gas mileage because you're narrowing the engine's expectancy in dealing with environmental temperature and humidity ranges to best suites your local environment.
