As bcfromfl said, figure the cost of a tune into your budget.

I've heard this advice many times over. Will the car run without tune? Or just with CEL? Backstory: I plan install a Z1 intake myself, but will be having a shop do the HFC and CBE. I then plan to get tuned ~1 month later, but just wanted to check that I'm not missing something and that I can actually get the car there (moving). Thanks!
