Default ok so have headers, exhaust, intake...is a tune going to help?

my 00 ws6 has had hooker headers, magnaflo exhaust, ls6 intake, and a lid and 4:10's.

Will a tune help? I dont have a check engine light, but was told when i had the tuner hook up to adjust my speedo and he said i dont see a tune that has been done.

Will it be worth it? I may do a cam in several months as well.

A tune will help even a bone stock car as the OEM parameters are very conservative.

Even more so on a modded car where you have changed the intake and exhaust flow.
