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? If not I would save about a grand for not having to tune it again. He has had the car in ky and said it ran just as good.... Any input helps thanks.

Every car is different therefore requires a different tune

Given that the UTEC does not compensate for temperature well anyway, and that theres probably not a huge difference in elevation... Yes, it will work fine (and by fine, I mean more or less the same as it did for him). If I were you I'd want to know who did the tuning in the first place, and it would be a good idea to see any logs he has, or do some logging yourself if you have the capability. It would also be smart to take it to a shop in your area and have them put it on a dyno and verify and/or adjust the tune.

At the very minimum strap it on a dyno for a few pulls... you'll know pretty quickly if it's safe or not based on the AFR, ect... assuming the tune it had was a decent quality, the most you should need is a slight touch up definitely not a full retune.
