why would he tune BEFORE the cooling mods? then he will just have wasted a bunch of cash on an overly conservative tune...

Better to have paid some cash for a bandaid til the cooling mods are installed than to pay for a blown motor

so he's gonna make a dyno tuning appointment, wait til then, get it tuned and pay for dyno time, get the cooling mods, tune again? I say, order cooling mods and take it real easy til they get there, then get dyno tuned. save cash.
