Just like anything else, the timing, fuel and boostcurves need to be able to compensate for the diferent flow spec. You can get a little radical without a custom chip, but if you are getting a much larger grind, you will need to do some tuning for optimum performance. The timing curve is going to be the biggest part.

Alright thanks for the info, when we get the car back together, I'll see how its going to run and have it dynoed and go from there its suddenly not as easy tuning the car when you don't have the ability to like I did with the Haltech in the White Beretta.....
