If you want a dyno tune. I would say drive on down to Manchesney Park next to Rockford and contact Tim Barth at Mr Norms. He has done my dyno tune, and many other Marauder owners.

But if you want a kick ass tune shipped or emailed to you without a dyno tune. Contact Marty at Mo's Speed shop here. One of our Vendors.

But since you have headers and cams You may need a dyno tune. Hopefully someone will say if you need a dyno tune or not with your headers.

I'm would say with having headers and cams. You'd be better off with a dyno tune.

If you want mail order, I would be happy to hook you up.

If you want a dyno tune, I would recommend Lidio @ Alternative Automotive. He is not just a vendor here but a great tuner, very knowledgeable, and a good guy:

He can be reached at 586-463-0010.

I wonder if it's worth it to get my car dyno tuned even though I'm n/a? How much does it cost?

A dyno tune is always better than an over the counter tune. But being NA with no headers, or ported/polished intake, or cams. I think a dyno tune would be a waste of money until you got some more significant mods.

I'd agree.

You only really need a dyno tune once a part has modified the AFR such as doing headers. I did a dyno tune on my car but that's only because I opened up the whole exhaust system from the stock exhaust manifolds back. Probably didn't need it really but thought I would be safe.

I'd run up to Alternative and see Lidio. I suspect more than one problem may be present based on your posts.
