Default When Should I Tune?

I installed a F13 114 Cam last month, and got a mail order tune to get me on the road. The tune is decent and the car feels really good, but I know that a dyno tune is a must to achieve the most out of the car. I live in Florida and it is hot and humid now (as it is most of the year). My question is, shoult I get the dyno tune now, or wait untill Fall/Winter for better conditions, or does it even matter? I appreciate any info you can give me.

Thanks,

Drew

shouldnt really matter, but if you want your car to run the best through all conditions, and assuming you drive it year round, you might wanna do it in a inbetween season, such as fall or spring, then it wont be super hot but it wont be the coldest(notice i live in MN so it doesnt get COLD down there compared to here), but really it shouldnt matter that much...
