Change tune before downpipe/front pipe install?

mjdecker · Feb 4, 2019

This Friday I'm having a RV6 catted downpipe/front pipe installed. I'm currently running the stage 1 tune from Vit since June/July 2018 and it's been great since. Would you guys recommend switching to a base tune prior the dp/fp install or will I be fine running the stage 1 tune after the install?
The shop doing the install does not tune Hondas so I'll eventually look around for another e-tuner but I'm thinking the summer/spring at the earliest. Other than ktuner, I am running a K&N short ram intake.

The file you have now is fine for use with an aftermarket DP/FP combo, but you can also use one of the supplied starter files, too.

That intake does skew MAF fueling a bit, though, and you'd absolutely benefit from custom tuning to fix that.

You're not too far from me, by the way, if you're interested in dyno tuning in person.
