Default need help

Would a dyno tune be worth it on a 2001 ss with ftra, lid, ported throttle body, kooks headers and kooks true dual exhaust, or would it be better to just do a mail order tune?


Let me know if im posted in the wrong thread please.

Depends. How many more mods do you plan on doing and how quickly? If you are doing more mods fairly soon, a frost tune by mail will get you by while you accumulate the rest of the items. If you aren't going to do anything else for a long time, a dyno tune will be better.
