The official answer would be to play it safe and get a tune, but there are people on this forum that have a drop in w/o a tune.

Are you planning to open up the exhaust side? If so (you probably already know this) you should definitely get a tune with mods on the i/e side.

Yers you will be fine, just watch your boost when its really cold out due to a spike. The Evo comes with enough fuel from the factory to run your mods untuned! You just won't feel much of a gain, this is where the tune comes in Have fun I drove mine for like 2K miles untuned an my A/Fs were in the 10's on the Base map.

OP, you should be ok.

When you are ready for a tune let me know.
