Default ARK, Retune?

Do you have to have your engine retuned after installing the ARK ?

I do not think you "have to". I have not yet will be doing it after I do my CAI mod. When you put in a "good" cold air kit you could mess up you air/fuel ratios and lean out the car too much. You don't want that.

As with most cars, tuners can squeeze I few extra HP out of a stock. Is a few HP worth $500ish dollars for just an exhaust? Up to you really.

Heres a vid comparo if you have not heard it before

I would guess it is the high flow cats. That reason I didn't go with them this time... I did that on the last car and found it annoying on long drives. But I'm sure it sounds awesome when you open it up!

However, on a friends Z with the kinetix hfcs, it remains fairly quiet and sounds just a bit louder compared to mine with stock cats. Either way, still sounds
