Retune?

My car has LE2 heads and LE1.5 cam and was tune for it. the only problem is that it still has the stock throttle body. if i put a 58mm on it and change my exhaust should i have the car retuned or should it still be ok?

why would you put a 58mm on. That would be overkill unless your running bigger cubes or fi...52 should be more then enough.

whats the cam specs if you don't mind and what are you planning on doing with the exhaust? i'd probably stick a 58 on it as long as the intake is ported for it.

got a wideband on it?

i would lean towards retuning it....

Yes the intake is ported for it and I'm switching back to a ypipe so I can run a chassis mounted torque arm. No wide band yet

No, as long as you get the TPS set, it should not "require" a tune.

Will it help to get one, maybe.
