Better off getting a custom tune like with tuning by frost or a dyno tune. Those handheld tuners really aren't worth the money as compared to a custom tune.
It's not how fast you can go. It's how fast you can get there.

Handheld tuners are a waste.
MAF's are also a waste. Stay with the stocker.
Strut tower braces fall into this category as well.

You can get a tune right off the bat if you would like. Won't gain much though...but gains will still be had.
You want to get it tuned anytime you change something internal. Cam, heads, compression, etc...
Or put on a power adder. Nitrous, blower, turbo.
For that matter...I got a re-tune after my FAST90 got ported.Last edited by Mr. Luos; 02-04-2010 at 01:15 PM.

and also i saw on a website that said the ws6 runs about 68 mph at 1500 rpm in 6th is this correct because mine runs at 1500 at 55-57 mph????

this is dependent on your transmission and gear ratios,
ws6s and nonws6s have different rear gears
a4 ws6s get the worst mileage, and nonws6 m6s get the best, all because of gearing,
i dont know what gear ratios came on what, but maybe someone else will
