remap advice needed

Hi all

I am now getting towards the end of my intended power mods
I currently have LET's 181 pulley + evosport headers and to finish things of I want to improve the intake side and get a custom remap .

As far as remapping goes I'm pretty clueless, so my question for those that know is, am I OK to go ahead and get the remap done now or should I wait till the intake is sorted.
would the intake have any effect on the tune If I did it later or would the tune be the same regardless

as far as the intake goes I'm hanging on to see what LET are about to surprise us with

TIA

If you are running a pulley without a tune, I would get tuned next. Your car will run MUCH stronger.

The additional airflow from the intake would be OK with the pulley tune, IMO.

How do you like the headers? Anything bad to say about them?....good? I have a set that I STILL need to install.
Thanks

thanks for the replies guys

I think I'm going to go ahead with the tune and then get the intake later,

the reason for this is that I've put my name down for a one mile drag event
which is happening in early august.

I went to this last year when my car was pretty much stock so this time I want to be as ready as I can be.

I don't think that the LET intake will be available in time so I'll just have to make the most of what I've got

I've had my headers installed for just under a year now and I've got nothing bad to say about them

when they went onto the car everything else was stock so I don't believe the gains were that big, although It certainly seemed to pull harder as the speeds increased

I dare say that now my pulley's installed they are probably of even more benefit but it's hard to say just how much,

I just know my car feels much faster now
