Default Sct X3 tuner or Dyno Tune?

Should i buy the tuner and get a dyno later or would i be wasting my money if i'm eventually going to get a dyno tune. And do either of them make a big difference? (my mods are in my sig)

having a tuner will come in handy..and since you got a gear change you can calibrate your speedo with a tuner...and if you decide to go with 4.10's later on u can calibrate it then. You can read diagnostic codes and clear CEL or SES...I'd go with a tuner and have who ever is going to tune your car on a dyno do 2 or 3 custom tunes on their so you can switch it out for DD or track.

It won't be a waste of money. If your positive your going to eventually need a dyno tune, you would end up having to buy the Xcal3 anyways. I see you have an auto. Tuners are great for firming up shift points in an auto.
