BOV change!!

Is a tune required for a BOV upgrade. If I go and replace my existing BOV am I going to be prone to boost spiking or running the risk of future engine damage
I currently run a basic plumb back and look to move up to a turbosmart duel port

If you run the dual port as a dual port, i.e. plumb back and vent to atmosphere, you will need to tune it if you are running a MAF setup. If you are on SD then no worries mate.
