It's worth it at any boost level. Optimizing the fuel on a dyno and with a wideband can do wonders. I have seen a few gs-t's gain up to 20hp by tuning on the dyno, most had super AFC's though.

i asked the same thing a few weeks ago. u cant really get anything tuned unless u have a safc, cam gears and an fmu. if u just have the star stage 1 kit, then it isnt worth getting dyno tuned, since they cant really tune anything.

Apex'I Super Air Flow Controller. Check just about anywhere. www.nopi.com is the first that comes to mind, but probably not the cheapest. Try www.groupbuycenter.com for group rates.
You can tune w/ just an AFC. cam gears will allow you to change timing a little and the fmu would have to let you adjust base fuel pressures to help tune (s-fmu or similar).

Joe is right; you really can't dyno tune your car, unless you have a way to adjust your fuel pressure (or fuel map), or an aftermarket igition with timing retard capability. You could just get it dyno'd to see how much fwhp you're putting down;)
