Questions about Tunes?

Hey all,
So I'm starting to look into getting a tune, and to be completely honest I have no idea what to look into or how to do any of it. I obviously want to add a few more performance mods before I get a tune, but I've got some questions before doing anything else.

How much can a tune affect the stock motor and everything stock? does it make much of a difference?

I have an injen CAI, and a Magnaflow Catback right now, would it help much to get a tune, and how much increased HP would I be looking at from the stock 168?

Now for the fun stuff, haha, I was thinking of going with the rrm pulley and rrm headers, then the works suspension kit (springs and rear sway bar) And what other things do you guys think!?

If u want I can make ur car run like a ferrari... for a minute or so lol. Honestly a tune is the most important thing about ur build. There is no answer for how much a tune can extract out of an engine. This depends on the components u have firstly, and then the timing, AFR, mivec engagement, rev limit, torque limiting etc. If u want to learn more about this, I recommend visiting the forums below. I dont intend to sit here for hours writing everything out

Hope that helps
