Do I need a re-tune?

So I got a tune and I have a tial bov. The tial bov is too loud and attracts wayyyyy to much attention. My car is red and that enough attention. So what I'm doing it going back to the stock intake tube but keeping the k&n filter. And going back to my stock recirulating bov. And getting another stock uicp. Will I need a re-tune or no?

Thanks

I don´t think so! But check your air fuel and your boost when you change the intake...

Why did you buy an Evo if you want zero attention? If you're seriously worried about a bov and car color I think you made some of the worst decision making possible when choosing a car and parts, lol. Sorry just saying...

Yes, you should get tuned. You'll be more restrictive with going backwards in modified components.
Not to bash, but I've been running a Tial 50mm VTA, Cammed on E85 with SD and a full turbo back and no CAT, and I live in CALIFORNIA. It's all in how you drive, where your driving.

This.

I was sitting next to a trooper at a light the other day, full turbo back, his windows were down, and the wind was definitely blowing my corn exhaust in his direction. I got left alone because I didn't rev it high under the overpass or rip it up the ramp, passed him at 5 over once we hit the highway and he didn't even look over at me.

not everyone buys an evo for the attention. believe it or not most buy it for the performance. i wish mine didnt attract so much attention too and mine looks pretty stock lol. Switching back will make you run richer in between shifts but thats about it. i'd still log a bit to make sure you dont pull knock if you have access to a tactrix but you should be fine

You shouldn't have to get a re tune, but it wouldn't hurt to check the idle out
