It's usually recommended that you do get a tune after a intake upgrade plus you will see better power with a tune. Some people have run intakes w/ out a tune and have been ok but I would personally say get a tune, you wouldn't want to risk the car running crappy.

I just got this same set up 2 days ago. All I can say, is go for it. It's so amazing. I haven't got a tune yet because I'm waiting on getting a few more mods before I send in my ECU to Jestr. But I've only been running it for 2 days so I can't say much, but so far it's incredible!

I have that intake and I am currently waiting for my tune to come back in the mail so I will let you know the difference, but it should be night and day

A tune should definitely help. I know a guy that had a catback exhaust, dp, o2, manifold, intake/uicp, and avcr all with no tune for a few months. Needless to say thank god he recently got tuned.
