ive got i/h/e at the moment. if i was to tune my EG with a new ecu, can i modify it afterwards? for example if i put in new cams would i have to get it retuned? sorry for the noobness lol

Would need a retune.
Depends on tuner if they want to start from scratch or edit the map you've already got tuned previously.
what about little things? like would i need a retune if i went from a sri to a cai? thanks btw xntrix
You wouldn’t necessarily need a retune, but if you wanted to, it wouldn’t hurt either way.Quote:

thanks for that.. thats what i needed to know! i was worried, coz im about to get my car tuned but in the winter im gna change it to a sri and when the weather fixes up, switch back to a cai.Quote:

4) installed skunk2 intake manifold, proffessional throttle body and got it tuned to 118.5kw atw
imo it would be a waste of money if you were to retune your car from sri to cai. Yeah it will generate a few extra kw atw but not worth the retune. Retuning is done with "bigger" types of mods, mods that are going to affect the engine in a big way like i have outlined above.
Hope this helps :)
wow i didnt think id have to tune it so many times.. how much did it cost u to tune each time?
