ETS intake on a stock tune.

I'm thinking of putting my ETS intake on with my stock tune So i can install my boost gauge. I will only be running it for a few weeks untuned. I've heard of people running one for months untuned anyone experience any issues? I'm also running upper n lower intercooler piping and a intercooler core with a test pipe n catback. I'm thinking the intake might lean out my car too much.

You should be fine with the ETS intake. This was discussed a few days ago..

Not sure about the test pipe, IC and IC piping without a tune, though

You can run all our bolt on parts with stock tune. A tune is recommend for optimal performance. But... you can put the parts and go for a while with no problems or check engine lights.

You can also install your boost gauge with no intake, however if you have an ETS intake, INSTALL THAT ****!

Why wait to love life?

There are some intakes that really mess with the MAF and can make an untuned car run like *** when you install it.

The ETS piece is NOT one of those. You are good. Throw that fine bee-otch on there!

I ran my car with all the same mods with no tune for 2 weeks and I was fine... no check engine lights... I have the AMS intake though, which is a similar design to the ETS and had no issues in terms of engine problems or running correctly. HOWEVER... once you tune that bad boy, you will realize how much a tune can do to your Evo!
