Looking to order these in the coming week(s)

Hey guys, I planned on ordering my suspension so that it arrived for my birthday (May 5th), but I've been leaning towards engine performance (intake)

I'm looking at the stage 3 intake manifold:
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-assemble...1617559523kt3/

and either this intake:
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-afe-part...4-81012-c~afe/

or the euro intake.

I do plan on getting the Turner tune as well (with both selections for afe and the intake manifold) but the fact that its going to make my engine run more lean, and possibly trigger my service engine light (at least pre-tune) is fairly concerning.

I was looking to get the manifold and intake for my birthday (present to myself) and have that taken care of in the beginning of May, and then get the tune mid may-early june (or just wait until I buy the tune to install the parts).

Has anyone that has this setup help me out with some tips for it (do it vs don't do it, or if its bad for my engine to run it slightly more lean [even if the customer on ecs stated that it wasn't enough to harm the engine, because I don't really trust one single comment])
Thanks everyone,
Alex

Even though its your BD present I would suggest you not to get brand new 3s IM and euro intake. You can easily find good used for 1/2 of the price, which means you can get more gift for yourself.

Also while you are doing the intake manifold, i would suggest you to take off the valve cover and get MILV, then get BPC 3 stage intake manifold MILV tune.
