I am looking for a tune. I dont have anything crazy in my motor, but I heard that a tune can free up some hp/tq. Also, I kind of want it so I can get the air/fuel ratio right...seems to be running slightly rich. Anyone in the bay area tune for a good price? I dont have a chip, so how much would everything be. Its an NA setup with bolt-ons...think its worth it??

I don't think it will be worth it.

You can squeeze out just as much HP with an adjustable fuel regulator with your N/A setup.

If i do just install an adjustable fuel regulator, how would I know how much is enough?
