you don't "NEED" a tune, although you will be running a little rich.

but to get most out of the exhaust, a tune would be necessary.

I'd recommend a tune on a stock evo and especially a tune if youre helping it exhale easier.

Kinda sucks that you need a retune after you get more parts added on.

I'd vote no. As long as it is just a catback, it shouldn't be a big deal..

You dont need a tune if its just cat-back. If you're adding on the downpipe and testpipe as well, then you should absolutley get a tune along with it.

No need for a tune, We build our intake to be a factory replacement. You can bolt it on and go. The tune will net more power, but not required.

thanks!
