if the mods in your sig are all that you have done to your car. the only improvement you will notice is in your posture while sitting. (b/c your wallet will be thinner)

you will not benefit in any way/shape/form from a mail order tune, especially with the little amount of mods you have done.

dude seriously?
see how long ive been on this forum... see how many posts I have... Ive been doing this crap for a LONG time. you do not have enough modifications to justify getting a tune. and ordering a chip with a half asses mail order tune, isnt the best way to go. If you want a chip, go to a performance shop that has a dyno and can actually TUNE the car based on real resuslts, and actual data

Adder is to the point. Spend money on something to improve performance.

Although Adder is a dick I have to agree with him, you really don't need a chip right now let alone a mail order tune. If/when you want a tune get it done right on a dyno so it's specifically for your setup.
