    Ok I have all what I need to move up to stage 2. My ? is if I install my up/downpipe combo and don't get it tuned right away will I hurt my motor or turbo. My main concern is the safety of my motor/turbo. Do most guys get a tune tune right after a install? Its going on 04 wrx for those who dont know. I want to install but I dont know if I should. Any suggestions/help will be apretiated.

    Thanks, Jacob

    I'd schedule for a tune first and then put the parts on a day before you get the tune. The safest way if you're asking.

    When were you planning to tune it? I drove mine for a couple of days before tune, but I stayed away from boosting.

    you can take it easy to a tuner.
    try not to smash the pedal

    BTW, there's quite a few guys running around without a tune (YIKES, I know).
