Quick Question.

I see online that a lot of people recommend to get your car tuned if you change out a few mods. I have changed to a Cold Air InTake and have on order FI Test Pipes, and Exhaust.

How important is it that I get it Tuned? I was told that its not that important, yet I read online it is.. How important and how much of a difference can I expect from UpRev?

thank you

Your first breather mod is the most important and you will see the most gains. Anything you add after that wont be as significant without a tune.

For example, with CAI- (10-15hp) Test Pipes (8-10hp) Exhaust (5-15hp)

Ill be generous and say that you potentially gained +25 hp from the following mods, but with proper tuning, you will see another 10-15hp or more with a proper tune.

You can also do things such as valet, delete the rev limiter, delete the top speed, add security start, and you can also see increased MPG.

More importantly, a tune can correct your a/f ratio otherwise you will run lean which is bad for your car. CAI, TT and CBE alone won't mess your a/f ratio that much(thus a tune is not necessary) but since you have all 3 mods together then you should go for a tune to be safe.

When you talk about Uprev, which module would I get for the nismo and does it tune automatically?

I think when you pay that much they will dial it in on their Dyno..
Or from what I read they have presets that will match what you have put on your car.
