Well when i did the nitrous i decided to get a custom dyno tune, and even though my n/a numbers were still the same 260 rwhp at the time., the car ran noticeably better. It was faster at WOT, had better throttle response, etc...

So my point is, in your case (having a full HCI setup) you should benefit from one far more than i did at the time with just bolt ons.

That's just my opinion.

I realize i should've waited to have it tuned on the dyno, hopefully its not too late. I was wondering if the tune is hurting the car, i doesn't run that well under 2500 rpm and i've had a couple of codes. Does anyone know if i can cut 0.1-0.3tenths off the 12.119 time with a custom duno tune?
Update 4/14/2011
Now I feel like sh!d, I installed the cams, than ran this car for 4 months, and made 5, 1/4 miles passes with the left cam installed 180* off. I took everything apart and reinstalled the cams.
