ok, my next question would be if i dont know what program was used to tune the ecu originally, is that going to make things difficult?

p.s. Its a daily driver and i am thinking of going with buddy club racing spec 3's, i hear they are better for midrange power... have a lot of bolt ons already in place but wasn't sure how to go about tuning b/c not sure about who/how it was tuned in the first place.

Then there's no point in upgrading cams, especially with stock compression. Leave it alone or find what management you're using.
