Default tweak

i would think it would need a check and perhaps a tweak-probably better asking the man who mapped it

as above, if it's been mapped then the map will need adjusting to work properly with your new modifications. Time was spent calibrating the ECU to give the best performance with your catted downpipe - now without the cat there is less restriction in the exhaust so wastegate settings, ignition timing and fuel need adjusted again to match.
