Default Question regarding Heavy Breather and Remap

I currently have an '07 Tain with the Stage 1 A/B, dealer download and V&H Pro Pipe. I'm going to add a Heavy Breather, so I am wondering if I will need another download/remap from the dealer?

I know that a seperate tuner (PC,TTS) is a lot better option, but thats not in the books right now. Temps have been in the triple digits and I'm not wanting to screw anything up.

Low restriction air filters will make a big difference on fuel mixture. (leaner) You should have it checked.

Default Heavy Breather

I went from the Stage 1 A/C to the Heavy Breather without any problems. Seemed like it may have even run a little better. Anyway I did this change without a remap.

Thanks guys. Did 200+ miles today without changing anything. It does seem to run better with the Heavy Breather.
