If you are looking for some power bump, then jump on other mods first, the Z does not expand much performance wise with a tune like other platforms.
I have a stillen gen 3, invidia cbe and was contemplating getting some hfc and a y pipe. If I decide to put the hfc and the y pipe, do I need to get a tune? or would it just yield a little power and a tune is optional?

At that point (HFC added) I would throw in a tune.
First couple mods the car will respond and adjust but once you throw in HFC or TP you really starts throwing off the fuel and other items, the main idea behind the tune on the Z is to get everything back in check to be safe & reliable power. Also, it allows other options to be opened up, like better fan control, multiple maps, and more.

Doesn't a cbe go from the cats back, negating a need for a different y-pipe?

I am contemplating changing it out to get a little louder sound. As im sure you know the invidia isn't one of the loudest out there. If I was to just throw some hfc's on it, would a tune be a must?

invidia CBE is true dual right?

you shouldnt need a y pipe, nor will one fit on that exhaust

just get HFCs, its gonna make the exhaust louder, also you dont need a tune, even for full bolt ons, its just recommended to get the most power out of your setup

DeFivepoint0 has full bolt ons and factory tune iirc and his car is running just fine
