I understand that you are worried about your new car, but if it's causing this much concern don't do anything to it until its out of warranty.

I have a late 2011 SSV and have started to mod it. I figure if you want it just get it.

Cat back, OTR, MAFless tune, suspension and Brakes have all been changed, still even more stuff is coming out and going in.

End of the day don what you want

Well providing a mafless tune is worth it and is noticeable then I'll do it.

Agree, MAF MAFless it's up to you.
Until you carry out mods that require you to go MAFless then keep the MAF for now, if you go down that path you will need a retune anyway so get it done then. Either way tuning your car will make a difference without an OTR, without any other mod.

I'm going to have to go mafless because I have OTR now and I'm getting engine lights so best to mafless tune it I think I have a local guy but he only mafless tunes he doesn't do tunes where the maf is retained..

Not much choice in Orange? What are they charging for the tune, have they told you what to expect form the tune?

You will certainly know the difference once you get it done. Just make sure you take it to someone who knows what they're doing. Bad tunes can blow motors.

I get the impression he knows what he's doing it's Mr HDT in dubbo NSW he's been around for a while. He's got a blue VK that I've seen at a few car shows, summernats etc amongst other cars he's builds engines etc.. I'm really torn on what to do not sure what way to go. Mainly because a tune is risky when you ask yourself how do I know it's a safe tune.

It's 1500 dollars with a VCM OTR he does all the fitting. Or I think 900-1000 without intake And I use my orssom intake.
