I switched to 30lb injectors from the stock 19lbers on my Vortech blown 5.0L. I was using a C&L and I switched calibration tubes accordingly.
My car would hardly run. Once it did start, I had to give it throttle so it was revving at over 3000rpm to keep it running. It was running way to rich, the plugs were soaked in fuel, and my eyes were watering from the exhaust fumes.

I purchased a PRO-M specially calibrated for 30lb injectors and a supercharger. Right after I installed it, the car fired right up on the first try and settled into a nice idle.

So in answer to your question I don't believe C&L to be very accurate.

In my experience PRO-M was very accurate and I don't believe there would be much to gain from a tune.

+1 all day long, and they're cheaper than Pro-M, C&L, etc.
