Exhaust / Tune?


I'm thinkin about goin with a pair of Borla axle-backs on my 06 gt. I haven't contacted Borla yet, but thought I'd asked the question here first; would a tune be required with that upgrade? Thanks guys.

Is everything else pretty much stock on the car? If so, I'd say you would be fine w/o a specialized tune for a hp gain that unsubstancial. On the other hand, tuning always maximizes potential hp output of every power adder no matter how big or small so it wouldn't hurt, not to mention tuners are handy tools for future mods, trouble codes, etc...

Yeah, all stock so far 'cept for some visual upgrades. After the axle-backs, I'll be looking for a good CAI. Thanks
