a Tune can do wonders. ART pipes are basically very well resonated test pipes. The difference won't be that big if anything at all in my opinion. Heres my Dyno chart from a few days ago before and after tune. Look how big of a difference in torque the before and after tune is and even how the torque moved from 5k down to 4k rpms with a VERY noticeable difference. The dotted line is pre-tune, and green is post tune.

My suggestion would be to spend the money on a Motordyne M-370 manifold. It's about the same cost as Art pipes and give you much greater gains in torque. And then get a tune for sure. You will definitely see a noticeable increase in whp and torque.

A tune will be a great start for me from Chris and I think I should go for m370 instead of ART Pipe since I using a Invidia TP. Thanks for the comment given
