Default Tuning??

Ok, I may get called a noob for this one but would like seriois opinions. So I just hooked up my vortech kit that I got from another member here. Used identical set up and both non rev engines, he has a utec with the tune he used he lives in florida I live in illinois, I am buying the same injectors he used. This is where I need opinions, will there be much of a difference in the tune due to our location differences? He has had the car in ky and said it ran just as good.... Any input helps thanks.

Temperature and elevation will be the biggest factors, and unless you live in San Diego where it is 85 degrees 90% of the year, the tune will have its moments.

Living in Texas where it is 50 one day, 85 the next. 20 in the winter and 100 in the summer, there are a lot of variables. If everything is identical you might be ok. I would get it tuned for piece of mind. You should post this question in the FI section
