Question about Tunning and TB
I did a search and I can't really find the answer that I"m looking for. So forgive me if this has been asked before somewhere else.
I am installing a set of FLP headers in the near future and already have a few misc. mods on the car, SLP lid, FTRA, Borla Cat Back, nothing to crazy. Should I even consider gettin a Tune done once I put the headers in?
I am also thinking about gettin a bigger TB. So obviously I wouldn't be tunning till I figured out for sure if I'm going down this road or not.
Sooooo with the set up and the possiblity of gettin the TB should I tune the car? I know this isn't a way to judge but on all the car shows they bolt on some mod, dyno it and then tune and re dyno and the HP goes up a few more.
So give me some feed back.
Thanks.

I wouldnt go with a bigger size TB unless you are goin to change the intake also to like a FAST. A ported TB from just about any of the top porters will do all you would need on the production ls1/ls6 intake. Tuning is recommended on the headers but not on the TB unless you are wanting to wait on gettin a TB.
