Hmm , possibly , won't be the harshest upgrades to cause knock tho so I wouldn't be overly worried but on a run it may need a fuel tweak

seconded, maybe get it fired on a dyno to check fuelling and listen for knock to give you the all clear

As you already have paid for the license I would get it checked for peace of mind, you have changes the flow of the exhaust and a tweak will make use of the change
