I'd spend the money on a real tune. You'll get alot more out of it and it will be safer since it would be specific to your car and not some "universal" tune.

It depends on your goals. Are you going to build the engine. Obviously you have a few mods already. If flashing the ecu will be the end of it, fine, JET is no better/worse than other programs.

If you plan to continue modifying your car, save up and get hondata or better yet, neptune. It will be worth it in the long run.

+1 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ No matter what... a dyno tune on your own car with a programable ecu or ems will yield the best results for all applications of driving.But is un-necessary for a d.d. with bolt ons.

I am also curious, not for my car but for the people with limited tuning options. My friends OBD2 Camry for example has a very conservative tune from the factory and he's looking to give it a little more pep since he installed his intake. So does anyone have info on gains?

There are too many variables to put a concrete number to it dude.
