yeah you would need to retune that dude...if it was just a catback you would be ok but a testpipe and a downpipe can cause problems if changed

+1 you will need a retune for sure because you aftermarket exhaust is free flowing were the stock is restrictive

What exhaust do you have now?

ETS V2 Quiet looks close enough to OEM to a cop and the noise can be kept under control, especially compared to a single-exit style.

If you have a dual-exit and it's been too loud you might want to consider a resonated TP or HFC...and a re-tune.
