You should be fine. I run straight piped without a tune. Passed inspection and emissions even.

If you spent the money on the items mentioned and have them installed, getting a tune wouldn't hurt anything ... probably help.

It would maximize the gains and ensure your AFR's were alright.

Will it blow up if you don't get one ? Probably not.

Why do people ask this same question over and over and why do people continuously answer these same questions over and over?

Because the person(s) asking the questions are aspiring to greatness and know it all status of others ... and the dummies like me answering the questions, same reason. Someday, it is our goal to know everything. Not there yet, so please be patient.

It will be a long and arduous journey, but we will eventually get there.

You guys like to promote laziness fat America at its finest!
I'm assuming you guys never had a 350z. If u would have been on that forum n this same question was gettin asked every week... Well, that poor guy who thought my response was "rage" lol would die of a heart attack.
