I have a 1989 hci mustang. And i plan on getting it tuned in about a month but i have a trickflow r intake fcam and patriot heads. Haven't had the car long but it feels pretty sluggish. I was just wondering how much will a custom dyno tune would help me out?

Very hard to quote specific numbers. Depending on th tuner, could be alot. Might not be HP and TQ but in driveability. That is most imposrtant. With HCI and Injectors, the ECM can only do so much. Adjusting Fuel Pressure and Timing also only do so much.

a custom tune always helps..especially when you deviate from stock..you need a tune to make all the mods work together for max performance & drivibility..and to make sure the AF is safe

I agree with the two above me and would like to add, why that combo? Are you waiting on boost?
