High vs low altitude

skylin3 · 03-29-2017, 07:59 PM

So I'm about to install the HKS Hi-Power exhaust and Berk HFC's to go with my Stillen G3 CAI I already have. Afterwards I'm thinking of getting a tune done but I'm not sure if it's worth it or not. On top of that, I'll be living in Albuquerque from June to the end of the year which is about 5300 ft altitude. I'll be moving to the Florida panhandle at the beginning of next year which is obviously at sea level. So my question is, wait till I get to Florida to get the tune done or will it not really make a difference? Thanks for the input.

Regardless of the altitude, you're ticking the 3 mod box, so get the tune. Or do 2 and save the 3rd til you get to Florida, and then do the tune.
