Default Does a new bigger intake/TB have to have a new tune?

I have a new 96mm Professional Products Typhoon intake and TB in my garage waiting to be installed. Curious if anyone has run that big of a setup with retuning right away? Just don't feel like spending the money when I know I will be tuning it again (eventually) after the heads get reworked.

It sure does. You might have to put bigger injectors on it too! My 98s stock injectors ran out of steam when I had a 90/90 Fast setup installed. My tuner picked up an additional +27rwhp after the install.
