Default programer or chip
what is the best programer or chip to use on a 5.0 that has cold air intake, trick flow, and cobra throttle body.
I just got the car and want to add more power with out taking down the motor and doing it that way.

a dyno tune realistically shouldnt be done until the flow capacity of the engine changes drastically.. Example. A power adder (SC/turbo, nitrous),a H/C/I swap, a CID increase.
