Mail order chip? NO
Custom dyno tune with a J3 chip? no
Tweecer or Moates so you can tune the car yourself? Now is the perfect time!

I say this because it would be best to take on the learning curve of the tuning systems BEFORE major upgrades have been made.
This way your tuning skills will improve as your car does....


Just my opinion on in though,

I agree with dudeboy here. But if your afraid of using the tweecer or its not something you dont want to learn then a dyno tune will work. It will help it wont hurt you and you will notice a difference after.
