Tune w/ basic mods?
Is there any point in getting a tune with just basic mods (b&b bullets and blackwing for performance) - if so, any ideas how much I could expect to pick up? Thanks.

Probably no more than 15 to 20 HP, but the tuner can disable the skip shift (and other non essentials) and tune the fuel delivery mapping so that the car runs at the most efficient level. that's ther real advantage without some serious mods.. Your gas mileage might go up a few MPG also.

Then add setting the cooling fan on/off temps to something better, removing skip shift, torque mgmt, rev limiter, etc... Not to mention the tune is set for a car that is used on track. Nothing drastic or on the edge. Just a cleaner curve. I didn't get better gas mileage but it isn't worse. You can feel 28hp at 4Krpms.
Try and get that kind of performance improvement for $300 with bolt ons...
