Anyone else running TSP Stage 1 tune with stock engine piping?

Pulled the trigger on a Hondata and Stage 1 tune from TSP. I'm probably going to run Map 3 99 percent of the time so I'm not in full boost all the time.

Wondering how long I can do that before I need supporting mods or risk damage? New to the whole tuning thing so I'm curious how a tune can have so many optional supporting mods yet be more reliable than the base maps that come with Hondata.

Ideally, I'd get the High Efficiency Downpipe but that thing is backordered for months.

I ran it just fine on my stock car for months before I started modifying it.

You can run the tune on an otherwise stock vehicle and be solid. It’s designed to be fun and reliable. :thumbsup:

The only thing you need to run the tune safely is high quality fuel. 93 octane is recommended, 91 octane is tolerated. No other modifications are needed to run the tune but you will experience the benefits of standard bolt ons if used along with the tune.
