has anybody had dyno tuning
I installed a short ram K&N air filter and magnaflow cat back exhaust. Should I bother dyno tuning? Will it make a difference? Any personal experiences to talk about?

Probably would not make much difference I wouldn't bother. Besides there is nothing to be tuned on these cars without adding engine management. Unichip, or e manage. A pre programmed unichip actually might make some difference. I haven't tried one tho.

You have nothing to "Tune".

If you had a piggyback (Greddy EMU/EMB, AEM FIC, CAMCON) then you could do a dyno tune but your money would be better spent if you added some fi then get a Tune

Re: has anybody had dyno tuning
Did not want to create a new thread so I will just ask, how do you like the CAI and Magnaflow exhaust? This is the basic upgrades I want to do with my Vibe. Also by looking at some historical threads the price on the magnaflow has increased considerably compared to what it used to be years ago - I suppose those were pre-tsunami prices. I am a DSM owner and the prices on import parts from Japan from my AWD eclipse increased considerably after the incident.passtimik wrote:I installed a short ram K&N air filter and magnaflow cat back exhaust.

Re: has anybody had dyno tuning
Adding the intake and exhaust were exciting for me, being they were my first mods ever. The outcome of adding these upgrades was that I experienced some nice gains in hp and a more thrilling ride, for me. It was also the beginning of "mod fever", which can become ecpensive. I was able to get the cat-back on ebay a little cheaper than most other websites... i think $450 a year ago. The intake was close to $200. In my opinion, well worth it.
