Default Fitting a STi V6 Intercooler, will I need a remap tweak?

Will I need a remap if I fit a STi V6 intercooler to MY00? Or can I make the adjustments myself via the hand held Apexi Power Commander?

STi 6 intercooler will make very little difference.
I didn't see much difference fuelling wise, when fitting the much bigger STi 8 item.

Im thinking it may need to be tweaked, but I was wondering if I could do it via the Commander as some settings can be changed from there.

Scott, your bhp, is that from a Rolling Road?

rolling road plot shows 316BHP and 321BHP at 1.3bar. The latter being with a bit of water poured on the old MY00 Intercooler.

Now running an apexi and STi 8 intercooler.

I also have the commander but didn't need to change anything, just make sure it makes the same boost and the Knock activity doesn't c.hange
