I need some more upgrades, cam, throttle body etc

Ok I may sound like an idiot, but where can I get a tune at and how much would it run me?

So far I have:
k&n CAI
borla ATAK c/b
pacesetter 1-3/4 LT Headers
pacesetter HFC

So if I get a tune how much HP would I gain?


And how much will a cam cost me? I dont want a huge cam just a small mild cam that will give me some power.

And should I upgrade anything else before a cam?

Any help would be great!

And btw I have a L99.

Tune will wake the car up especially the tranny tune. Get a ported TB and a 2800+ stall.

Will the dealership do a tune? I have never done one before lol.

What is a good ported TB and what is the site?

And how much for the stall? And site?

Cams can be tricky with the L99. You can go with a small cam that will work with your AFM but most choose to remove it the AFM. That adds some cost because you'll need to change out some lifters and misc stuff.

Your thread: "I need some more upgrades, cam, throttle body etc" struck a funny chord in me. Sounds almost like you need a "fix". And, essentially, it is because mods are addicting. I don't even have my camaro yet, but I've already allocated 10k on mods before the car even hits my driveway.........

Let me know if I can get you an SCT tuner with LSR custom tuning. Or if you already have a tuner I can help you if you just need tunes. Shoot me a PM for pricing/info.
