Default Will it need mapping again

Since having my RB5 remapped, I have added a newage WRX tmic and the WRX undertray. Both clearly larger that the standard parts.

The car doesn't appear to perform as well as it did before the additions.

Would it benefit a map tweak?

ide say so mate, it will be taking in more air now due to the larger i/c so i think a map tweak would be the way to go

Bob,

You have also added a Samco Y-pipe have you not?

As Simon says, worth getting it checked.

I suspect the warmer weather is also blunting the performance.

No he shouldn't, the setup he has now will meet his goals.

Yip, keep an eye in the meantime if you have a boost gauge to ensure it isnt spiking.
