No...You added nothing that radical to require a new ECM Prom, unless you just like to spend money.

I think that that hood is going to definitely require you getting a good tune[sm=happybounce.gif]

No need to retune if you gut the cat. Once the cat is gutted the power produced will be immeasurable.

we really should link any new guys to the viper thread if were going to talk about that for 2 reasons:

so we dont scare them off cuz they think were ******bags -or- they dont actually believe that crap (1 reason, interchangable)

and


so we can hook more people into hanging out here more often with our crazygonuts awesome threads

to answer ur question, u do not need to retune for those mods. your AF hasnt been affected much with a few minor boltons. dont worry about a retune unless you have done internal work

Just to chime in about tuning...

You usually can get the max amount of power out of intake equipment and cat-back exhaust without needing a tune. You can get by with headers without a tune, but you usually don't fully utilize the extra flow of the headers until you get the car retuned. Anything internal needs a tune.
