Do i need a tune?

Beater370z · 01-13-2022, 01:02 PM

So i recently decided to upgrade to the 1050cc injectors, and was wondering if i can run without a tune. Ive been reading up and seen plenty forums saying to tune the car when you upgrade injectors, but is it necessary? Would i still be able to drive around?

Why did you feel the need to upgrade? If you need to upgraded injectors, you definitely want to get a tune. Not sure why you would consider not getting a tune.

Idling? You're probably ok. The car should let you know pretty quick whether it's ok or not.

You need a tune with the 1050cc injectors. Your car wont start with the default duty cycle settings. Swap them at the shop or get towed to the dyno.

If you are not boosted or need larger injectors for E85, swapping over to them will gain you NO additional power.
