I do not think you will get very large gains without the reflash, so get a CAI that needs a retune for optimal gains. If you cant afford this right now you would probaly be best off saving up unitl you can.

it depends on the CAI your best bet is to save and buy a kit for a few reasons most kits come with a tune specially for that intake and allow your measurements to be rpecise. or if you are just doing bolt ons make the upgrades and order an sct x-cal2 from bamachips, or brenspeed, or mustangtuning.

however if you are just looking for a tuner i am selling a brand new diablosport predator and pc interface kit. for 300+shipping.
