Is there a Tuning Option??

Currently stock but want to purchase Specialty X Cat Back and KN Intake/UICP(not the drop in). Also i would rather go with a COBB or Perrin tune rather than local DYNO due to the perception of these tunes being milder with a bit more safety engineered (some may agree or disagree with this statement).

I understand some folks have great tuners right around the corner but i don't think one is available in Houston (although i could drive to COBB). I also understand others prefer drop in's and different exhaust but these are the selections i would prefer.

My question is what tune options if any do i have with the selected mods? Would my only option be driving to COBB? Thanks for any and all advice.

My $0.02:

Just get the AP and nothing else for now, especially not the intake. Later, when you can afford it, add a full turbo back including Turbo Adapter (aka O2 housing) / Downpipe, High flow Cat and Catback, then flash the AP Stage 2. After that, you can think about some other options like UICP, FMIC, E85 etc.

It's not a matter of cost, rather personal preference. I understand this is not the route for most but changing out the cat, downpipe, etc. doesn't interest me. Appreciate the feedback and knowledge just trying to keep things simple by maximizing the gains with my preferable choices.

If you're looking for a local tuning option, you'll have better luck asking your question in your regional forum: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/south-region-42/
