[auscer]

I think BNR III is the stage where it requires a proper tune.

Mind me ask the cost shipped?

I think you probably require a tune to get it running well with any turbo modification as airflow design characteristics change. It'll run, just a question of how well you can utilise the modification. If I'm right Toddy had the BNR stage III and got knocking in the higher gears on the stock tune (not to mention power delivery wasn't all that impressive on the stock tune) Confirm with him if you like.

You should definitely get it tuned. I have a BNR Stage 2 installed and it's getting tuned next Friday by Tunehouse in Sydney.

I think if you start doing mods like that, your car should be tuned for reliability and to get the best value out of each mod.

I personally would do a tune as well, just for reliability and safety... Don't want to overboost or lean out and knock... anything else coming with the stage 2? Exhaust mani?

If you know what your doing you can make it run ok on the stock tune until you have money for a custom tune.. obvioulsy it won't be making huge power on stock tune

i am currently using hypertech tune atm

I removed my hypertech tune the day before the stage 3 was installed. I definitely would not run a bigger turbo on hypertech, I think there is already enough risk running it on a stock tune.
