Valve: Vent to atmospehere to reciculating need tune?

Hi guys. After so many years at EVolutionm.net. I finally get my evo. Its an 05 IX GSR.

The car valve is set to vent to atmosphere, which I heard is not recommended & I rather do without the "boy racer" hiss sound.

My question will be, should I tune after converting to Reticulation setting?

If so I have an idea to only convert to Recirculating only with other upgrade like turbo, so I only need to tune once.

What do you guys think?

No need for a retune for just the BOV swap unless it was leaking or something. If it's just the difference between VTA and recirc, then you dont need a tune.

you should be fine. The bov wether its vta or recirc should be closed when you are on the gas. It may change some things a very small amount in the lower load cells, the car should be able to compensate for this though. I recommend pulling the negative terminal for a few mins to force the car to relearn the fuel trims without the stallamatic 2000 on there.
