Question Is a flash necessary

I have a Buschur deluxe intercooler and all intercooler piping and the intake tube and was wondering if all of that can be installed without the flash and can i drive it without the flash or is it absolutly necessary to get the flash done right away.

You can drive it without a flash, but you need to make sure you get retuned as soon as you can. I'm assuming you're already tuned when I say "retune." If you're not tuned at all, then that is by far the most important mod for you to get - more important than all those you listed combined.

If your following the Buscher stages, which is good, then I would wait until you have all stage 2 parts. Install them all and then get a good custom tune.

Either way, your're going to get about the same answer from everyone. Absolutely necessary? No. Highly recommended? Yes..
