The tunes often run too lean and the pistons overheat and fail. Very common with tweaking. But if you've got the money and engine failures don't hurt your feelings, then have at it. My problem is that I nearly anthropomorphize my cars. They're like the family pet. I love them too much to risk their health. Man's best friend.
