To really get your money's worth out of a tune, get all of your mods done first. Otherwise you'll have to go back and get it retuned. I'd also do

I'd also do whatever you're going to do about that intake beforehand. You're probably ok running as is until you get tuned, but running leaner combined with high IATs is asking for detonation.

Chuck, this is true if your tuner does not offer free lifetime updates to your calibration! All of our files come with this as long as you stay within the same type of induction, ie; normal atmo vs forced.

Thank you. I'll go ahead and relocate filters before getting something like test pipes.

If I can prevent blowing the motor, I will XD
