Hey guys I don't know much about the mechanics of cars but is it worth me getting my VY Dyno tuned ? If it is what can I expect to gain ? thanks for any help.

How long is a piece of string?

Without mods, no real point at all

At least get an exhaust to get some sound out of the LS1 then get a tune if you really want or just leave as is.

Thanks thats what I thought.

Hi Jayozi,
As 'crewchief' said: even on a stock motor you will find gains with a Tune. Although modifications in conjunction with a tune will unlock even more gains.
You can expect an increase in Horsepower, an improvement in torque, better fuel economy and even a more responsive throttle.

A tune = money well spent!

If you are getting it Dyno tuned, at least get a Catback and Intake done beforehand.

More power, better economy. Worth every cent.

If I was going to It over again I`d get one of these HP tuners/vcm suites or EFI lives flash scan. If you are computer literate that is, also there is plenty of help on the manufactures website including forums too.
