No, you have to get a new tune for them.

I would go with gears before the CMDP plates personally. I think alot of people on here would agree too.

Have you done any suspension mods like upper and lower control arms? Lowering springs?
If you want the plates, you'll need to spring for a new tune.

I have both gears and springs/dampers, they both have their benefits. The gears are a kick in the butt, lots of fun. But if you don't want to do gears go for the springs and dampers, man what a difference they make. The car handles incredibly well, it looks better and the wheel hop is gone. No body roll on turn in, just carves the corners. Its an expensive mod but the results are fantastic.
