A tune would be beneficial, just to see where you're at.

You need to get on a dyno with a A/F meter and see what your ratio is. They can help you tune it either with the preadator (via download) or better yet have em burn a custom chip for you.

I am not conviced that the preadtor is capable of getting a decent tune on a GT with near or full boltons. You will need a download from diablo to get it perfect, and that sucks as it takes forever and a day to get it right.
