No, you cannot delete 02s and you will get very little HP. Waste of money. You can make fan temp and gear adjustments, but it will not do custom programming. It only has a "canned" tune that you can load or not load. For about half of that you can get a custom mail order tune.

You would need to talk to the tuners, tell them what you have and they could give you an idea as to what you could expect.

So I read between 10-40 horses with my luck and my mods I am goin to say closer to 10. With that being said it seems like a lot of money for that am I just not seeing the benefits or thats just what it cost and thats good bang for the buck. Im new to building cars so I am tryin to learn the right way and the most cost efficient.

A few recommendations:
Throttle body coolant bypass
Throttle body airfoil
An aftermarket catback system to go with those longtubes
Electric waterpump (I'm not a fan of these, but they will free up a few hp)
Underdrive pulleys
160 degree thermostat
Aluminum driveshaft
Lower rearend gear won't give you horsepower, but will help acceleration performance.
A heads/cam combo would be a few $$, but probably the best bang for the buck. After heads/cam, you would want a tune for sure.
Do some searches and lots of reading. Watch the "for sale" section constantly--you might find some stuff you need or could use.
Hope this helps.

A tune is a good idea on these cars. It's probably not the best bang for the buck thing you can do but it is a must to get the most out of whatever mods you do have now.
