yeah, i'm planning on getting a tune within the next few weeks myself... CAI and longtubes will be after that, not worried about the tune update, once I buy a tune the guy tuning my car will let me log it after modding later and he'll update it for free...

its pig rich right now... it gained a little more than I thought it would with the x-pipe and axleback... mostly because the stock mufflers weigh about 35lbs a piece and my new axleback with both sides of exhaust weighs MAYBE 20lbs... definitely a drop in weight, not to mention most of the gains in the exhaust are dumping the stock h-pipe and resonators for an X-pipe...

the tune on the L99s is supposed to a be a night and day difference we gain A LOT more with a tune than a LS3.... in fact we go from getting schooled to schooling
