Which should be first?

Im about 2 weeks out from getting a 2800 or 3000 stall. I also am going to set up a meeting with pcmforless to get my car dyno tuned. SHould I do the converter first or get the dyno tune first?

or does it really not matter?

I would probably do the convertor first then have it tuned. I really don't think it will have much effect on the power output on a dyno, but maybe it would. I think its a good idea to do the change of parts now, then tune, not the other way around. Maybe someone else knows better though...

well that depends... if u get the convertor now when are you going to get the dyno tune? a month, 6 months, a year? if longer than a few months i would get the dyno tune first and then save for the convertor b/c it will be cheaper. if it would be like a month then get the convertor first
