    Had my truck tuned since 140k miles, now running 217k. Its worth every penny as long as its not a hand held and tuning is done by someone who knows what their doing IE. Nelson Performance. Trans cooler and some new o2 upstream sensors are good things to have also along with your tune.

    A lot of miles for a flush if it hadn't been changed regularly. Put a vette servo in.
