might be too lean, intense tune is a good start up tune. You still need to fix your afr and y our timing to take away knock.

You should be fine if the tune was tailored for your mods, keep an eye on your afr though to be sure.

if yoru shop has HPtuners then yeah, do you have your own afr wideband and HPtuners because if you do, its better that you just learn how to fix AFr and timing. the shot will charge you too much man.

Get a wideband 02 sensor , more accurate than any tailpipe sniffer and you can keep an eye on it at all times, never trust anyones tuning, not even GMs, every car is different and "canned" tunes rarely work perfectly

Intense is a good starter tune as stated. But they cant take in account your mods or the weather in NY.

At the very least get a wide band so you can monitor your AFR.

intense is a good tune..they just push your car to the max to make the most power and some times your car cant handle it and something may break but it rarely happens and i would reccomend them!!

He isn't an intense rep.

Do a search for people what their kits and see there results after a few month.

1badss/sc, contact paul and have him modify the tune for you to make sure your running safetly. no internet tune is going to be 100% accurate, every car is different.
