does OFT have a specific tune for any catted header?

i have a oft on stage 1 with catback exhaust. Im wanting to go to stage 2 but dont want a cattless header. Does OFT make any stage 2 specific tunes for any uel catted headers? dont know much about tuning, but im reading a lot and learning as i go. If there isnt any specific stage 2 tunes for catted headers, but i found someone with a custom stage 2 tune for their catted header is there anyway to copy that tune and use it on mine if i get the same catted header as them? (just hypothetical, dont know anyone).

want a uel catted header because i dont want my exhaust stupid loud, but i want the uel rumble.

Yes, we can support the Sprintex SC through our custom e-tuning service. Base map to get you up and running but several refinement over the tuning process.

would this tune hypothetically work for any catted header? since atleast from my research almost all catted headers are almost exactly the same?

I don't think so. The VVT calibration is always dependent on the header layout, runner diameter and -length. It doesn't really matter if it's catted or not if the cat itself is not the bottleneck. A well-placed cat could produce gains as well (pulse reflection).

It is minimal, but my exhaust is quiet too. I have an invidia q300.

No issues with knock or anything? Still relatively new to tunes and how cats affect flow. Wondering about using the stage 2 uel catless tune with a chatted header.

I don't hear any strange noises besides the crickets. Mine is 2017 so I am using a beta OFT tune. When I spoke to Shiv on the phone he said it was ok that my header had a cat. Not sure about the previous model years. Might be best to give him a call and ask if you're going OFT
