(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  When is it time for a pro-tune? Hey just trying to figure out the perfect time to get a tune done to my car. My mods are catless downpipe and testpipe, sri, tip, fuel pump, and bov. I will probably continue to mod my car but should I take my car down and spend the money for a professional tune on my accessport? Would I notice a big difference as opposed to using an OTS map? Thanks for your opinions. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score If you have a modification level in mind, you might accumulate and install all of the bolt ons and use OTS tunes for the time being. A protune on a load bearing chassis dyno is definitely worth the $, don't let anyone tell you differently. The only way to tune the VVT on your engine is with a load bearing dyno. |

If you are referring to e-tunes, I agree they also can be great for someone who does not want to be dyno tuned. | |
