QUESTION
What modifications require a tune update?
ANSWER
It depends on the modification.
Some upgrades can be installed without any tuning changes, while others should be installed before tuning begins so they can be accounted for during the data logging and revision process.
As a general guideline:
✅ Typically no tune changes required:
Intercoolers
Charge pipes
Spark plugs
Most blow-off valves
⚠️ Usually best installed before tuning:
Cold air intakes
Ram air intakes
Turbo inlet tubes
Aftermarket downpipes
❗ Contact us before installing:
Upgraded turbochargers
Fuel system modifications
Other major performance upgrades
You're welcome to begin the tuning process before parts are installed. In many cases, we can process your tune request, read your stock file, and prepare your baseline tune in advance. Depending on the modification, however, we may recommend waiting to flash the tune or complete data logs until after installation.
TIPS
When planning modifications, let us know what's currently installed and what you plan to add in the future. This allows us to provide the best guidance for your specific setup and helps avoid unnecessary revisions.
