I would think to get maximum performance from your cams it would be best to get a custom tune

custom tune is recommended but a lot of folks run the 260 with a canned 91 performance tune.

Cool thing is you have an 05, that is arguably one of the best years for tuning. You'll get max benefits from your cam with a dyno tune.
