all depends on what kind of mods u already have. if ur bone stock, i would say maybe a 7 hp gain. if u got intake exhaust and other lil goodies,ur gonna get more out of ur tune.

Correct me if I'm wrong but if you get a Dynotune they will burn you a custom chip for your car and you will not need any sort of handheld tuner. And then when you mod a little more they can just reflash your chip.

If your car support the handheld tuner, I would defintly get one...

The mods you're talking about I doubt you will see that much power... You will probably get around 25-30rwhp tops... with longtubes you can look at around 40+rwhp.. but not without them.

So now.....with my mods....how much hp gain am I lookin at with an sct tune? And I mean how much hp gain from THE tune itself. I'm NOT talking about total hp gain from all my mods AND the tune.
