you Do Not need to change your MAF and a tune is prob not going to be worth-it at your power level...someone might extract another HP or 2 out of the combo but I don't think the $$$ will = the HP gain att

you dont need to get another maf. It would probably cause issues that would outweigh any little benefit you would get at this level.

However, with any mods affecting air volume into the motor a tune is good. The factory tunes are rather conservative. I highly doubt you NEED a tune though.
