 3.6 should I tune
I'm going to be getting a 3.6 mps from jarrod, do I need to tune. My engine and tranny have 20 000 km's right now and I have a CAI, 3" DP, and a tune with no KR now. Let me know what ya'll think.

 Re: 3.6 should I tune
I would just throw it on there. But if you access to a DHP etc it would not hurt. Where are you located?

 Re: 3.6 should I tune
You can put a 3.6 on a bone-stock GTP.

 Re: 3.6 should I tune
I ran a 3.4 on a car with headers exhaust colderplugs and a wizaired. Saw 1degree of KR mind you... number 6 coil was gone I am going to try again but roller rockers go on as soon as I am home again.

 Re: 3.6 should I tune
I about to buy from jarrod at tazmic, should I just go with a 3.5 for the extra get up and go. I'm not going to mod any more after this. These cars are tough, but not that tough for daily use.

 Re: 3.6 should I tune
I ran the 3.4" with a 1.5bin, cai and u-bend & cat delete with no problems at all.
The problems started @ 3.0" ...

 Re: 3.6 should I tune
Takes quite a bit to run a 3.0 anyways. Your tune starts to really matter around there.
