I only have drop-ins, post MAF tubes, and a muffler delete at the moment. I don't think it would make any huge gains but it would allow me to do a few things I want which are having tunes for different octanes, incresing rev limit, and a valet mode. That being said, if i do get the tune i was thinking of going with the following 5 maps: 1. Stock 2. 91 w/ 8k rev limit 3. 89 w/ 7k limit 4. valet 5. ??? What do you guys think?
IMO, not worth it till you add long tubes or test pipes and full CBE (or at least upgraded Y/H/X pipe).

Map wise, Stock, 93 (or 91 octane) performance tune, valet, anti theft. Raise rev limit to whatever you're comfy with and permanently turn of code for catalyst inefficiency or whatever it's called (so TP etc can't throw a code).

I don't see the point wiht different rev limits for different tunes, if you're on a stock map, just don't drive it hard (shouldn't anyway if you're fully bolted). 89 octane tune seems like a waste, stock tune is fine in case you find yourself in an area wiht bad gas, just drive under 4K rpm until you can get the good stuff.
