ssautochrome to maybe a ram-horm. or maybe even a log style. whatever i can get a deal on. so what if it's about the same spool time and same lbs of boost. i won't need a retune will I?

I just retuned a ssautochrome to a full-race manifold. It would about a full point off on the a/f. Retune it.

you need to take into consideration how efficient the setup was before, to how efficient the setup will be w/ the new setup.


if its a mellow setup, chances are it wont change much.

if its wild, then yes, it can.


no matter what, i would atleast toss a wideband on the car and see for yourself.
