tuneing after LT and intake swap?
Im planning on doing jet hot LT's and their catted Y. Plus installing a LS6 intake. I have a lid on it grannitelli maf, ls1 motor sport lid and a loudmouth do you guys think i should have the car tuned. Not worried about check engine lights being on just looking for most power and drivability. It will probably be a good 6 months before i buy a cam or anything for it. thanks

You probably gain some power because of the maf and longtubes richening or leaning out the mixture. IMO, a tune isn't really worth it until you go internals unless you can afford it or are trying to set some kind of record. I would wait until you get a cam

Go with a tune ! A good tune from someone like MTI cost 500 initially then its free for two weeks then from then on its 75 and alot of peopl see a tenth to a tenth and a half with a tune from MTIplus they delete codes if you decide to remove any emissions equipment and if your an A4 youll get even better results.
