Why the tunes?

I'm new here and new to BRGs so I'm learning.

Early in this thread the FT-86 SpeedFactory guys stated in the video that they installed their Catted UEL on an otherwise completely stock car with a stock OEM tune. They made a point of stating that NO CUSTOM TUNES are required when installing their header.

They then proceeded to the dyno where significant gains were measured particularly in the torque mid-range area.

Then I read in this thread that many users are tuning with 3rd party software and I am asking why they do so. The easy answer could be that they are in search of further gains but is this really the case?

One of the many reasons why this product is attractive to me is the mid-range torque increase without the need for tuning.

Please explain.
