Default New turbo sc60, should I retune??? Tuners advice please.

I have a b16 with
440's
hondata s100b
I switched from a turbonetics drag kit turbo .48 exhaust and wasn't sure about the compressor size. I swapped in an sc 60 with a .48 exhaust side and a .69 wt. I was tuned at 10-11 psi at 90% duty cycle on my 440's with the turbonetics turbo. I haven't driven it hard since I switched turbo's. Should I re-tune before I drive hard or should I be ok? The only thing I switched was the turbo. By driving it hard I mean WOT at 10 psi.
Thanks.

Yeah definatly re-tune, that turbo flows more then the old one.
You may be a little lean under boost otherwise.

yes, it is extremely important to retune the vehicle w/ such a big turbo change. I could almost guarantee the motor will pop if you do not retune it.
