def recomend the SS autochrome o2 housing which is the one from ebay. affordable and fitment is 10/10.

as far as the tune, on my 8 the boost went up 1-2 psi so i would say u would be ok without a tune however boost may need to be adjusted.

Does your car already have a tune? You can drive the car the way it is even with the new parts but if you want to get the most out of your car than you should get a tune.

You will be fine even without a tune.

A tune will help...but is not absolutely necessary. The difference in O2 housing is minimal.
