personally ,I would wait to spend that much on a tune,they will not pick up alot,with the lack of mods,you have done,the diablo makes a big diffrence on a pretty much stock car,cant you download some more info from them? dont take me the wrong way,not trying to rain on your parade,just tryin to help,guess im saying $300 you could use towards more parts/mods. im guessing maybe they might find 20hp thats high and dynos are not that great a tool,look at it this way a few seconds used to tune the whole car,i like to take my time drive the car in the real world,drive it log diffrent parameters,map it all out, car runs and drives way better tuned that way. honestly where do you spend most time in the rpm range,driving it on the street. below 4000rpm.make sure they dont lock you out of your own car when they tune it,some tuners will not let you mess with anything,after they tune your car, just want to let you know so you can make sure you can at least reset any codes you might get after a tune,with the handheld you have now.

I had mine done because the gas mileage SUCKED when I bought it, the car would shut itself down after running for 5 seconds when warm, and the exhaust smelled downright RAUNCHY. Got the tune and the car hauls ass and gets better gas mileage now.

how did the tune go?
when I did my cam swap it firedup and ran fine cold, but when it got warm it would stall out.
luckily I had the laptop right there ready to tune......with lots of help from people on here I got it running pretty good quickly.

it was wierd man...after i put the cam it was ok right...like it was stalling and that was it..so we started tunning it and we staterd..as we were tunning it we heard a clicking sound..so i had to take it back to the mechanic and they are checking it out to see whats up...but we think its a loose rocker or a busted lifter..I dont know but we will find out 2-marrow...

what type of dyno did you use, a mustang or dynojet? also what for an exhaust do you have?
just curious, other than heads we have the same setup and I haven't had mine on the dyno yet.

Well long story short...The guy i bought the push-rods from sold me the WRONG ones...The push rods didnt have that hole through them to pass oil...So...Everything dried up in my heads and im guessing thats what caused the noise..ok then..Also i had to replace my lifters..Good thing the guy i bought the push rods took care of everything (labor,parts and 50$ extra)...
