that doesnt make a difference when you add fuel and up the boost you NEED a tune or your car could be running unsafely and putting your motor in danger, and if your motoris really built as you say then you dont need to deal with another rebuild

. a tune will work wonders with a new turbo and fuel your talking a good amount of hidden Horsepower

but with the built engine that he has, he can be more lenient on the tune.

not a recomendation though, I mean if its not driven hard untill tuned then there is no biggy but your AFR will be different and you dont need to be replacing a motor that is already built. I have seen a guy with a Built SR20DET I think i was in his 240 and it popped the motor for a lack of a good tune and his motor was fully built up. it sucks to see the time and effort get squashed by not tuneing a car. Better safe than sorry as I see it
