cat007 Member 236 Member For: 6y 2m 24d Posted 26/05/20 06:29 AM Share Posted 26/05/20 06:29 AM Exactly. I only did mine to make sure they weren't limiting me (to a point) in the future.They may not be needed but will be a pain to get a tune done to XYZ rwkw only to have the extra heat etc shorten their life span and go soft prematurely and you will be unable to reach your same power level again.
