If I am going from a Tomei UEL header to a Tomei EL header, do I need a retune?

TIA

Depends, do you have ECUtek or OFT?

ECUtek. I called the shop that tuned my car with a Dynapack and they said “it would probably be okay,” but that didn’t instill confidence in me…the guy who I spoke with wasn’t the tuner, too.

It will be ok, It may not be maximized on HP.

I ordered my 5000TLX QuickJacks and the pinch weld blocks. My Christmas present to myself! My shop supports many hobbies, so I wanted something portable that can be stored out of the way.

Update 12/11/21

Jacks are up and running! Pardon the poor photo, I was as far back as I could get. I had to redo the fittings on the long hoses because my brain transposed the torque values. I also used Loctite 5452 on my second attempt. After that, no leaks!

theraven762 · 12-12-2021, 02:10 PM

Not technically modded today, but I did order Valenti tail lights, side markers, hood struts, center arm rest, interior LED replacements and an Open Flash Tablet.

So a fun day of mods coming soon

Tested new shoes and shocks

Filled up my car’s tank. Filled the tanks in my trunk. I’ve got 20 gallons of E85 to burn at the track tomorrow.

Got a foot plate in too.

My car is 2 tomorrow. Changed oil and in-cabin air filter.

dodj · 12-19-2021, 07:42 PM

Blasted around in the snow. This car is great on ice!

theraven762 · 12-21-2021, 02:32 AM

Open Flash Stage 1 tune.
Thanks to @Chuckls for helping me find and install the OTS files.

Also ordered SpeedFactory UEL header and Perrin exhaust.
