Hi. I was wondering if i could run, "Safely" without a tune with just a turboback; test pipe? I know that it's best to be tuned, but I'm on a short budget right now and I can't get find any tuners in my area. Let me know with what you have. Thanks!

 

yes you can you just dont get the full power benifit of the part is all lol. i have

aps intercooler
aps twin vent bov
injen intercooler pipes
injen intake
perrin oil catch can
Walbro 255 Fuel pump
3" Invidia N1 High preformace exhaust system
Testpipe'
3" Perrin Downpipe
Megan exhaust Manifold
Mishimoto Radiator
Forge MBC
New spark plugs
Boost Gauge

No tune yes you can do it but i would not recommend doing it for too long get what you can i say a group of parts then tune it. Im building a separte 2.3 motor right now so ill finally tune it all once i swapped everthing out.

 

Thanks for the input!
I feel safer running the test pipe now. hahaha
yeah, i'll get a tune once i get more mods. Thanks.

 

np if you have any more questions just ask or PM me

 

Cool! Thanks once again! haha

 

np i remember being new and just wanting information lots will flame you so be careful what you ask or rather yet ask in pms if you can dont forget there is alot of information on this site just use the search command

 

My car has never got a tune until,hopefully tomorrow.

I just put in the Kelford 272's and it won't idle for sh*t.

Before that I was just running with base flash.

The previous owner modded it without a flash, and I never really get on it.

I would say you would need a flash for cat replacement though. CEL would prob pop up.

 

Cams are something you need tuned for sure or you will have drivability issues. CEL will pop up for sure if your O2 sensor is working, without the cat the CEL better appear or your sensor went bad. Just do the spark plug gap fix and space it out and the CEL will disappear. You will be fine with a test pipe or HFC without a tune. It will just help the spool up of the turbo a little better and you might lean out a little at the beginning of the power band, but nothing the the extent of being dangerous for the motor...

 

no!!! dude youll blow your motor with all that raw power!
