So I haven't really done a lot of mods, I've got a PRL intake, an nvidea catback exhaust, and the Phearable 1.5r tune.

I was getting a bit of wheel hop so I got the 27Won RMM. I watched quite a few videos that said you could get it on without taking off the front pipe and well, let's just say the flex pipe isn't quite as flexible as the name would suggest, lol.

Long story short, I've got a new 27Won front pipe in now! My question is, though, with the new front pipe do I need to get a new tune? I've flashed it back to factory for now because I didn't want to take a chance on messing things up just in case, but damn, after running a tune the stock just doesn't cut it anymore!

I am not a tuner, but for a front pipe, I do not believe a tune is necessary. But we shall see someone else responding that actually knows lol.

Any changes after the cat, no tune is needed. Frontpipe included.

A downpipe is highly suggested.

Upgrades that usually require a tune are any fuel related upgrades, turbos, or a larger maf housing.

This was really helpful, I appreciate it! Tbh, I'm trying to move so the car has gone on hold until next year, the front pipe wasn't planned but I'm thankful for 27Won's prices lol. I just don't understand how an upgrade is cheaper than an OE replacement
