I would say go for it. It's in your price range and that's pretty much what I paid too!

6-10mph??? i think... but if you get the tuner before the dyno you can go in and correct that.

Be sure to let us know how you like them, once you get them broken in of course.

Hey guys, I have some different info now... After talking to the guy at the performance shop, he said that he mis calculated the price and now its this... 380.00 for the programer with basic tune... The dyno will be much more money and he said that with the very little mods done, its almost unnessesary... Now i've read on a few other threads and that the a/f ratio should be checked before putting the foot in it... I know that I should wait 300 miles before doing this due to the new gears, but I don't know about the whole fuel and air ratio... Let me know guys, the last thing I want to do is damage the car...

IMO, if your car is running fine, with the lack of mods, a dynotune isn't really worth the money. In my case, my car was leaned out and pinging real bad at WOT so I figured the tune was cheaper than a new motor. The $380 for the tuner and basic program to fix the speedo should be good for you until you get yourself into more mods. Hell, with gas prices, you probably don't even want them to up the timing in which you would have to run higher octane gas...
