If you to a search, you will find a lot of info on this topic, but to answer your question, yes you will need reflash. Your MAF sensor will be expecting that additional boost in the intake, but you will be venting to the atmoshpere, so you need to have that tuned out.

Actually I can not flash fopr a VTA BOV - they are noyt suggested unless you go with a full stand alone ecu which deletes the maf sensor

Hey SEVEN just a quick question? You went 12.7 with all the mods listed in your sig?

If so, that is wayyyy low.

Yes is slow...it was just one run ( not much experince racing at the track), but the car has the HP to do better and a better driver will help even more = )

But i am from San Juan, PR....just ask Al how hot and humid is here, and that will answer your question, but the times will be significally slower than u guys from the states

actually it doesnt really show the power to get a much faster time, in fact pulling a 12.7 at 105mph is very quick. usually with a good lauch people pull 12.8-12.9 at 105

Those numbers was when Al tuned my car for the first time, after that, i added a few goodies and he tuned my car again.... I'll post the numbers with my new setup when i take it to the track again. My mods are updated on my signture, but not the numbers

Peace
