Retune would be advised if you want to go back to the OE manifold Jared.

 

Cheers

@Mike@TD.co.uk Why advised for a retune will it be ok to drive with OE manifold 

Because I think the car might be going back to subaru next week/week after

when you say going back to Subaru, are you selling it to them? or they just going to look at an issue?

They have offered me the new 2017 model for a good deal so I need to put the car back to standard to give back to them to sell on. They have a customer looking for a brz (not the 2017 model) so they called me up and offered me a deal.

I'd either sell it with the manifold or get it reflashed back to stock, any stock map would do but I don't know if you'd have to take it back to TD to get it done.

I have to take it back fully standard and don't have time to get it retuned, was honestly hoping it would be fine without one. If it's gonna be an issue I won't go ahead with the exchange and I'll just keep my current brz.

If you read Mike's post he said it would be 'advised'. So you don't have to return it to a stock map.

Cool thank you. Cuz the last thing I'd want is for the next owner to have issues.

leave a note in the owners manual or somewhere slightly hidden from the dealer to let them know it has an ecutek license and/or mapped for uel so they wont have to pay that fee in future and also gives them the option of to get it retuned back to stock or get a uel without any issues

Well, in all honesty, it's not clever not getting it returned to stock on the mapping side, so if you're doing it properly you would return it to a stock tune.

To be honest, I think it should be fine, ive done the same with my Type R and had no problems at all.

emmm not exactly.. i mean..a performance manifold 

that would be different then, uel works differently to a standard el manifold so tuning wouldn't be great on standard
