But you will not be getting the performance you will get with a tune - you will be wasting a lot of potential gains. If you're going to all the trouble and expense to mod both sides, you might as well spend some bucks to make them work together.
OK thanks to you and Rusty. I figured, and totally will be getting the tune, as I’ve already got a deposit down with a group here in New England for Moncef to come dyno tune a bunch of us in April. Can’t wait!
