thanks for the explanation. In the GTR world once downpipes are added a custom dyno tune/e-tune and bigger injectors is mandatory as the Ecu can only compensate 20% max in any direction.

So people with Dinan software tunes compensate for downpipes just by letting the car's DME compensate for the added flow? I understand JB4 already has the compensation built in but how do DInan people get away with it and also get rid of the CEL light?
