If you're spending that much money, you might as well just buy an aftermarket throttle body.

What else is done to your vehicle?

Agreed.

If this is all you have don't worry about a tune. You won't even pick up any power really as it is.

Not even bolt-ons (exhaust, intake, etc.) will make it worth the tune. Only headwork and/or upgraded cam(s) warrant tuning.

^ Pretty much.

Unless you have more done to the vehicle, you really don't need to worry about getting it tuned. Beef up your internals, boost it, then tune!

God that's a ghetto website....

Without any other supporting mods I'd say it's a waste of money.

F22PArts.com is a joke, and a complete ripoff.

No-name header and intake don't really constitute as supporting mods.

A Euro R intake manifold, Blacktrax spacer, valve train upgrades constitute as supporting mods.
