Default nelson tuner, what else do i need

i am thinkin about getting a tuner for my 05 4.8 and i need to know what to do before i do that. i am thinkin about doing the vette servo and transgo along with the acculator, and maybe changing up my exhaust. i bought a regency truck and it already had exhaust and e-fans along with 3.73's and limited slip, then i added a CAI, but any advise would help. i want no cats on my exhaust and a mganaflow(which one do i need, 2.25", 2.5", 3")

my recomendation would be to buy HP Tuners and have a tuner send you a performance tune. this will allow you to load it yourself and not have to be concerned with the crankshaft veriation learn. on top of that you can run logs and send them to your tuner for updates. this is a big deal if you plan to mod more in the future.
