Default Another ? on tuning

i plan on installing my big t3/t4 .60 trim turbo kit on in spring...call me stupid if ya must, but my friend, that is a v8 guy i must say, said i shouldnt need something as hondata, uberdata, chrome, or any of that stuff. He said i can tune my stock ecu, is that true? or are those a must? as far as i knew, they were and a tune is not a tune without them? can i get some advice? if thats true, then why would ppl buy them? ya know

I would definately get some tuning... It'll run A LOT better and A LOT longer if you do. Tuning is the most important part of any forced induction build. Dont listen to your friend, he doesnt know what hes talking about.
