Like he said, its pointless unless you're boosted. Are you going to go boost?

with a boosted/turboed car, you are supplying your engine with ALOT more air. To match that air, you need to tell your ECU to supply enough fuel to match it. This is where tuning comes into play. On your stock engine, or even with I/H/E, youre not supplying enough air to make tuning necesarry.
