If I decide to get this will I need a custom tune to accomodate for these things as my car and engine were standard? thanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/70656-tuning/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herrod are the ones who resell x3 SCT's so they might throw in a good deal for tune, x3 flash and motor.
