I believe its a tough one because if you get the tune then later you get a cam you need to get another tune to adjust for the cam.

But if you get the cam theres a chance it will run like a pig until its tuned so yeh... i guess it depends how big a cam you go if its a small one then it should run fine then get a tune when you can afford it.

If it was me i would wait get a bigger cam and tune it at the same time

Thanks Jake

I agree with Hibbz. And also if you do get a big cam you may have to watch the auto unless you run a stalli.

Hibbz has got it right, if you put the cam in, youll have to tune it anyway.

If you got the tune now it would be wasted because you're only going to have to change it.

Wait until you can do it all in one hit - put the cam in, tune it up, and drive it away with a smile on yer face.
