aslo the trans thing wont matter your not adding a ton of power you only gonna be adding 10hp or so if the tuner knows how to tune well.

Why I'm saying to get at least a street tune is b/c your gonna run hella rich on your a/f ratio. The stock ecu just can't adjust enough to run efficiently as well as for the performance aspect either.

every time i get on these forums i learn new things. thank you. whats the difference between a street tune and a dyno tune? obviously from the name the dyno tune uses a dyno. but what are the other differences? do i go to a tuning shop and say i want a street tune?
