plugs should be fine, but it wouldn't hurt to change them. if you are comfortable, you can take apart your plenum, clean the whole thing with some carb cleaner. also do the throttle body. clean the MAF with some MAF cleaner... new air filter, fresh oil... diff/tranny fluids.

basically get your car to it's best shape so the tune can be at it's best. a lot of the things probably won't make a big difference, but it's good to do those things if you haven't yet.

Ok good, I actually put on the intake a month ago and also installed the iso thermal spacer. When doing so I completely cleaned out the upper and lower plenums, TB, and MAF. Oil is recently changed, but I will see how close it is, and maybe change that again with the seafoam treatment.

I just got my tune at Uprev in Austin TX by Omar not Jared. I just wanted clarify up stuff. It was only $572 with tax. 300 for the reflash and license, $125 for the dyno time, 2hrs = $250. $550 plus tax = $572. I dynoed 258 whp & 236tq on my baseline with my mods. 265 whp & 237 tq after the tune. Not bad numbers at all. I didnt expect going pass 270 whp on my 5AT with my mod list. (K&N, z-tube, 5/16th copper iso spacer, Berk HFC, M2Performance HR y-pipe, and a full Nismo S-tune catback exhaust) relatively same numbers like other people score with these mods. temp. was 106 so it was affecting my tune a little. Gains were mostly from 5,000 rpm and to redline. But everything below was pretty much the same or a little better. Good luck with your guys tune. Im sure yall wont be let down.

My tune went awesome over here in lewisville! I base lined at 212whp. And got 269whp and 242tq!! I was very surprised because everyone else was hitting 230-245whp. My mods are...
ART pipes, MD spacer 5/16th, K&N drop in, polished Z tube, and Fujitsubo Legalis R exhaust. Thats all! im very happy with the turn out!

That's definitely a freak deal Mike... if I wasnt there, I'm not sure I could have believed it... I wouldn't change a thing. You've found the magic setup for her...

those pipes aren't the reason for the extreme difference... i can practically guarantee that... definitely unusual numbers, but definitely not hating!
