Any A/F included dyno's of a car with HFC/Catback and no tune?

There are 4 factory ECU "tunes" for the 2009 (not sure about the 2010's). Some say that with these "bolt-ons", that you need to fiddle with the A/F ratio. I never did and I don't have any issues (never had after 10K kms). My dyno showed improvement over the base-line (factory) numbers.
IMHO no, you don't need a tune. But some will say that it would help. I have never seen the need for one.
(please keep the flaming low.... I know this is a hot-button issue with some.)
