If you're considering any intake mods I'd suggest that you get them before you get it tuned. One of the most important things a tuner does is adjust the air/fuel mixture based on what is on the car. If you get it tuned then add the mods you're not getting the most out of the mods and may upset that mixture in the process.

I've been looking in maybe getting the VR .. I was nervous about the rain factor but after reading posts from people in florida and them coming out with a new design I'm not so worried about that anymore.
Air, get ready to be forced into my engine.

Breathing better does get some low end gains... When your valves are opening and closing a rate 3,000 times per minute or 50 times per second... thats when having good air intake flow and good exhaust flow comes in real handy.
*BTW This is the beauty of Forced Induction systems... keep the intake system pressurized so as soon as the valve opens the pressurized air blows in (hence the term 'blower'), in the very short time that the valve is open.
