Personally,... you might just be wasting money tuning for JUST the ls6 intake. It's a better flowing intake over the stock ls1, but that's about it. Unless you have several things going in, a tune wouldn't really be necessary. You'll be just fine without the tune, no codes no problem, unless of course you haven't tuned out the egr/air deletes.

If you installed it correctly you'll be fine.
