When installing aftermarket Cams

Do I need any type of Engine management? or just a re-tune?

Ya a tune is deffinately a must. I would say that if you plan on putting any other parts do it now. So that way you wont have to pay for a retune if you decide to put other things on the car.

Most likely just some hks 264's nothing too aggressive, sticking with stock turbo.

You just need a retune via ECUflash. Make sure you get a tuner that's familiar with it in your area.

I also happen to have a set of HKS 264's for sale. PM'd you.
