Tune, without a doubt...

But if you are planning to do many more mods in future, maybe fmic first before tune... Depends on how much you are going to spend in future, how many time you want to tune (and pay for it) and the time in between your upgrades...

Tune if you're not looking to mod much.

Tune, be sure to do your research and find a good tuner that you can trust. I've heard tons of stories of people going to their friends who say, "they can road tune you" just to have motor failure, problems, etc.

you need to by all your parts first, your car will perform just fine till all mods are on then one tune one price, or youll have to keep re-tuning your car which will cost you more in the long run

Tune.

Everyone wants to put a massive front mount on their car when they still have the stock turbo and arent even pushing that hard.
