Default What should I do?

I have a 1997 mustang gt. Would it be better for me to get a dyno tune when im finished with all my mods or buy a hand held programmer?

My future mods plan on being forged bottom end, 3.73 gears, supercharger, stage 2 cams, stage 2 heads, and PI intake.

Dyno tune. They can monitor and adjust your f/a ratio and you'll get a better tune so you don't blow yourself up!

A dyno is a must for those mods. You will either have to buy a tuner or a chip for the dyno tune though, so it's your opinion.

Get the tune! You should invest in buying your own hand held tuner though.

most dyno shops have a dyno tune/programmer deal or atleast here in Fl they do..my buddy got his dyno/tuner for $475 and they did everything from a full dyno with a/f and unlocking the rev, speed limiter, tstat, rim size, every option the tuner has they tuned it to his car..
