[Official] "Do I need a tune with bolt-ons?" thread

BUMP! Putting test pipes on with my full exhaust and JWT pop chargers + MAF tubes in a couple weeks. Am I okay to run (meaning spirited driving and WOT)

BUMP!

Putting test pipes on with my full exhaust and JWT pop chargers + MAF tubes in a couple weeks. Am I okay to run (meaning spirited driving and WOT) for the time being without a tune? Or should I put the stock airboxes back on in the meantime to do this safely?

Getting a tune this summer, but not for a few weeks after install at the very least.

You'll be fine you just may run a little lean and possibly throw a code. As long as you know your getting the tune soon don't stress it too much

As in a code for running lean or for the test pipes? I'm trying to find time to head over to Dynosty for an EcuTek tune but don't want to grenade beforehand if I get a little playful with the car.

Would a tune be beneficial for K&N drop filters, stillen HFC, light weight crank pulley. still have OEM EXHAUST but looking for a better 1. I hate the delay throttle response. THANKS
