My car has a generic tune in it and cooler with piping. so far so good but my fingers are crossed until I get it tuned. Dump and cat will definitely need a retune though.

Adam Here since the start...

Dillz Three pedals are better then two.. Donating Members 15,637 Member For: 17y 8m 28d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 16/01/12 07:07 AM Share Posted 16/01/12 07:07 AM Exhaust mods and intake effect boost more, bigger cooler doesn't make the turbo suck more air in as it's after the fact. People on here have given their cars an absolute hammering with intake and bigger cooler on stock tune without it leaning out.To me it's more of a waste of time and money upgrading your cooler then not tuning your car to suit. Having said that if your running a generic tune then there is every chance in the world that it will lean out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did 3 tunes, the top two both over 300rwkw. See attached image. The air/fuel ratios are good too.Extreme Street Performance in Queanbeyan NSW performed the tune. Grant does plenty xr and typhoons and the car has no spikes or issues to report after running this power for approx 4,000kms.So the consensus is a retune. Cheers guys, I will definitely consider this prior to making any more mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
