Default To tune or not to tune...that is the question

I have a 2800 stall in now with no tune and honestly Im not sure if I felt much of a difference vs stock from a slow roll. Also, from a stop sometimes it will toast the tires completely through first...sometimes not so much.

Im moving to a tci3500, is a tune required or should it be ok?

Thanks

Honestly the only thing it helped with my car was made the shifts feel much nicer, I used to have some shifts I thought my tranny was slipping on occasion. Also it makes the lockups a bit nicer. For my car it was simply quality of ride improvement, performance increase is probably negligable.

a good tune from a good tuner will make for a MUCH more driveable car and much better performance even with stock internals. the 3500 stall will benefit greatly from tuning.
