Default Tuner Help

Alright Im thinking about getting a computer tuner for my car (my firset mod). But I have a few questions for you guys.
1. My car is an auto will a tuner still help and how.
2.Since its an auto, wht is the best tuner for me; aka my options.
3.And lets say 6 months from now I want to drop a supercharger in, will the tuner still be needed as in will the tuner have a future use with mods to come.

Thank You.

1. Yes, it will increase throttle response, shift points and overall hp and trq.
2. I don't want to start a debate but Lidio from ALternative Auto has a sound reputation with Autos. If you are looking for best price, I believe Evolution Performance is best ( and have really good reviews on their tunes as well).
3. Most superchargers will require a tuner and you should be able to recalibrate the unit for use on a SC.

This will likely get bumped up to drivetrain, hope I helped.
