Anyone seeing good return on upgraded air filter/intake when doing a tune?

Thanks. I meant that I would do all the mods before the tuning, so tuning is done last. I just re-read my post and realised that the way I wrote it was confusing. Sorry about that - but yes, looking to make a decision now whether it's worth leaving stock box as is, or putting K&N filters in stock box, or just going whole hog and adding full Stillendual long-tube air intake kit like the one at the link below

The difference in price for the 3 options in Aussie dollars is $0, $200 and $800. I've guessing the Stillen is best overall but if gains are just marginal it's maybe not really worth the effort.
