It will enhance the mods you have already done. This is correct. I have a very similar setup to yours and I have the BD tuner.
PM me with issues.

I was at a tuning shop the other day, and they told me for my car (intake and exhuast, just like yours), tuning would be of miniscule benefit. Naturally aspirated engines usually don't have much to tune. However, I have heard great things with what the bullydog can do for a little bit of extra umph and better fuel economy. I'm looking at picking one up a little later in the year just to see if it really can give my car a little extra umph. I'll wait until after I get my y-pipe though.

Haha. Money has been tight up until recently. I've decided that if I'm going to do a tune, its going to be the route Funkee went and do an UpRev tune rather than BullyDog GT. UpRev dyno tunes your ride to an extent to get the most out of your mods. In terms of performance, those are next on the list, but I'm still saving up so I can do it all in one go. Might be trading my stock wheels for some 18's here shortly as well. I'll update my build thread when I get the chance DAAN.

I run the bullydog and in addition to excellent power improvement with mods I get 30mpg on my v6 No BS. That's going to Vegas from Phoenix with mountains and curves. Plus you can monitor full engine parameters and set governors and also if you get a Che k engine light, can diag yourself. Money well spent.
