Default I have a couple questions..

Alright, so my buddy just bought an 07 gt and ordered some parts for it. He got a jlt cai, but everyone we talked to said that he had to have a tune to put this on. Alright...fine.

He also ordered a magnaflow o/r x and borla stinger cat back exhaust. He wont need a tune to put these on too will he? I mean...I guess I could sorta understand the intake b/c its changing the incomming air flow, but the exhaust is just pushing those gasses out so...?

Also, how hard is it to install the mids/cat backs on the new gt's? We're plannin on doing it ourselves, but I'd like to know what its going to be like before we start.

Thanks in advance.

A tune is required for the CAI. Go with either Brenspeed or Bamachips. Can't help you with the o/r x and cat back system as I only have the axle backs. Good luck!

You will want to shut off the rear 02 sensors in the tune, the tuners mentioned about can do it.

Yea I figured that for the rear o2's he'd just get the mil eliminators like I have on mine. He said that hes going to hold off on a tune until he gets the lt's and all that stuff first. Then he's just going to throw it on a dyno to have it tuned instead of a canned one.
