For exhaust and AC no need for Dyno tune. A tuner will work just fine. Wait until you do cams and engine work for the dynotune.

If you're going to add a tuner and NOT tune it, then, yes, a complete waste of money.

Most stage 1 upgrades will work just fine with a canned map. I would wait until mor work is done like cams or big bore/headwork. This is just me but I cant justify $200-400 just for a couple ponies that you will most likely feel. For some its worth it for some its not. Just my

You can use a canned map with the SE tuner and then do a "smart tune" which should get you pretty close.

A good tune is not about the ponies, it's about overall drivability. Any bike will benefit from a good tune, just try and do all your mods first.
