Dyno tune - typically worth how much with my configuration?

Hey,

You see the mods below. I had the tune done at PCMForless and after a bit of an idle problem that was remedied by adjusting the cruise control cable to work properly with the Summit58mm TB, it has been running quite well (though I have not had it to the track).

The question is, how much HP/TQ would you expect a good dyno tune might find for me, keeping in mind that I am in Toronto and have to remain emissions-legal? Anyone know a good tuner in the area?

Thanks for the input.

depends on how far off the tune is. you could gain alot of none.
i'd just go get it dynoed with a wideband o2 and then see if you need it tuned.

i would do it. You have a complete aftermarket top end. It should be worth it unless your tuner is amazing.

Yes you would gain most likely. Make sure and tune the WOT timing map also not just AFR.
