i have about... 700 dollars im stuck between getting a loc for the rear or a tune... If i get my tune it will be from Lido due to all the gret things i've heard and ill have 300 left over... but i dont know what id do withthat left over either! Also on Lido's site it says when your at a dead stop and put the pedal to the floor it will spin the tires just from a tune. Ok.. well i want that.. but i dont want a right wheel peel only..so im thinking of just getting a loc first .. and install.. hopefully for 500 or less and wait a couple weeks for enough money for my tunner.. but i want the power and to peel out! Does a loc give you any extra "oomph" in your but dyno? thanks in advanced.!

Yea, I'd go with the tuner and cold air intake too.

In any combo, tuner needs to be in there somewhere.

is it true that with a tuner you can floor it from a stand still and spin the tires?

Auto on the street, because of the throttle lag probably cant stock, but with the tune it should be no problem.

Get a set of 4.10s and you will feel a whole new meaning to the term "spinning the tires".
