I got mid macs on mine.. Kind of skeptical on spending an extra 300 for long tubes. I could use that for an ls6 intake.

Sure, if they know what they're doing, you can pick up little bits of HP that might be lost in a mail order tune, but nothing drastic. But it will be a custom tune unique to your car, so yes, it's worth it if you can justify spending the money.
