Does a aback box need a remap
I have had mixed responses to this. I am looking to change my PPP back box to either a ninja or tornado. To get the best out of it will it require a re-map?

I didn't think you needed a remap when you fit a Different Exhaust. Here's a link to how the Ninja sounds on my Bugeye

unless the car is mapped already it would be wise to get it checked as some boxes are far more restrictive than others and will effect ignition advance.

Simon, when your around the area grateful if you can check it, you know the car well enough
