Depends....performance tune up requres dyno time. If this is a beater in need or a tune up, just check belts, hoses, timing, replace plugs, wires, dist cap, oil, fuel/oil/air fileter, and that's it. Scan engine for codes too, and rectify any codes necessary, and your car is a top runner again.

Max tune up would include all the regular crap. Spark plugs, ignition cap and rotor. fuel filter, wires. Make sure to get a valve adjustment done as well.

If you want dyno tune well. theres no point unless you have at least a set of cam gears, FPR, or some type of electronic fuel control.

I would still do it to find out what my car realy does.....instead of guessing, like alot of people I know do.
