Default quick question guys before we spray the car

Hey guys, a buddie of mine installed my ls6 intake and ported throttle body on his car this weekend. should we get the tune looked at before we spray it tonight? Just to check the air fuel ratio? I told him it should be fine but he is worried it will blow up,lol. It will be getting alot more air than before so i wanted to ask you guys just to make sure. thanks............Charles

True,
I may be wrong here but more air flow normally leans the car out more.I personally would check and make sure the airfuel is ok.

thanks guys, what if we were to pill up the fuel a little bit? would that be safe for now, the guy that was going to meet us at the track w/ his computer might not be able to make it. thanks
