Do i need a retune?
If i get LICP and UICP's? Got my car tuned a month ago to 340 whp on stock 8 turbo. Have 272 cams, fuel pump, hks filter, catback, and aftermarket intercooler. Wanting to get intercooler pipes (ets piping kit) but dont have enough cash for a tune. Do i need to retune the car with these new pipes or will it be ok to use my old tune? Thank you.

maybe you have a friend who doesnt mind spending some free time checking your ecuscan logs to see how "safe" your tune is already to see if you can get away without tuning again.

+1 UICP most likely will not require a retune. LICP higher chance. there is no way anyone on evom can just give you assurance unless they spend time to see your tune... and log your car... which is what tuners do

I would find a local person to log the car and see if its knocking. If its not, you should be ok short term, but you want a tune to get the power out of your new mods.
