Yea,if I were to do it again I would do the tune first.An intake does a little but,A custom tune will bring it to life.

Do you have to send Nelson your PCM or is their price listed as once being sent directly to you without exchange? (I'd like to keep the stocker in case I ever have a warranty issue).

we have an 04' rcsb 2wd on the showroom floor with corsa cat back and k & n fipk. it was a noticable improvement, but programming i feel would make more of an improvement.
