question for those HP tuned
I am slowly getting ready to break out my HP tuners suite and start the tuning on the SS
couple of questions
how many of you have added catch cans? is it worth it, especially if you are tuned?
I have read on here that like most direct injection motors, they tend to get bad carbon deposits on the intake side of things and that a catch can can help solve the issue.
for those that are auto, did you add a tranny cooler? I expect to drain and refill with full synthetic fluid before i get tuned, but that wont help the internal temps! I have not looked but I believe we have a tranny cooler built into the radiator and these really dont do the trick of keeping things cooler, just push the overall temps UP and run the fans more!
lastly if you did any of these upgrades, where did you go for the parts or what are you running? pics?
thanks to all

but I would sure like to run some test to see the difference in our rides after your tune...
