the bottom of your sig says "just getting started" if thats true and you get a tune when you "finish" you'll need another one. a few guys here have asked this question, how much is " a tune". if you're planning on more mods, maybe get edit and efi live,do your own [finding out myself thats not as easy as it sounds]. or just wait until you're done then do one tune. unless you can find someone who will do it now and give you a discount on future tunes when you get more mods. good luck with that. e

regarding...? what mods ? i'm a truck guy, bought edit and efi for a problem i'm having with my s.c. i'm sure there are a lot of guys more knowledgeable about making power here. i just dropped a whipple and some other bolt ons on mine. if you can swing it a s.c or turbo would be nice but that opens up another can of worms as far as tuning is concerned. if you aren't interested in trying it yourself, save your money, find a qualified guy, have him install the s.c and do the tune. i think then you will be "done". unless you want to "build" your motor, and you crave power, forced induction seems like the next step.

It matters on how your tune is now.If A/F is good then you can wait on tuning till you get bigger mods.At minimum you should have a MAFT and A-tap now.
