Default VaraRam after tuning?

I have a Vararam intake and I also have cold air screens over the tubes. I have heard that C5s require tuning after installation of the vararam. What exactly needs to be done and who can do it? Will I see a difference after tuning?

It's not specific to the VaraRam. If you change airintake, throttelbody, headers, exhaust,H/C or whatever you will always gain by having your car tuned properly.

As with most cold air intakes including the vararam it is my understanding that once they are installed the cold air intake will make you run leaner than you were before install. ALways a good idea to get on wide band 02 chasis dyno and see what your a/f ratios are.
