Default Tune now, or later?

I have a gsr swapped hatch with headwork and 9:1 pistons. Running S300, I've done a decent street tune on it and drives/feels pretty good. Wideband stays installed so I can monitor afr's.

My question is, since it may be 6 months or so before I can afford the quality parts needed for my turbo kit, should I get it tuned NA at a shop and then tune again with turbo? Or just use my current tune(my first btw) and wait till the turbo system is on? I'm a little nervous to leave it that long on my tune as this is my first one...

Shop rates: 250 - NA, 425 - Turbo

But they did say they'd tune NA then just charge hourly for a "retune" for the turbo... Thoughts?

Your street tune should be fine. Depends how well you know about tuning.

Well after talking with the tuner, they'll cut me a deal anyway so I'm just going to have it done. Thursday 6PM is the tune appointment.
