Mods+PF PMS, am I ok?

Alright, I'm running DP,CB,Intake, with excellent boost and car behavior. Was on stock ECU, but recently installed PF PMS. Am I ok simply running it in the middle or third factory setting, or should I still have it fine tuned, to my specific needs. Gauge shows rich under WOT. Also, I'm interested in maybe running resonated mid-pipe. Would that be cool, or should I make some other changes to be safe? Thanks.

You should be safe.I actually hear more often that the pms purple is set too lean.But If you get someone who can tune with it then sure get it fine tuned and pick up the extra HP.I would have it tuned after installing any type of mid pipe if it were my car.So I Guess you shouldf be looking for a tuner in your area that can work with the purple.Or start reading up yourself in the ECU forum.

yep, you're right. I'm going to find a tuner. I want that piece of mind. Not even going to attempt it myself. Definitely before mid-pipe purchase. Wasn't sure if I'd have to mess with the wastegate or not. Thanks, Mark
------Only one reply????? Must of been a stupid question I suppose. But couldn't find much searching.

Easy response, DYNO W/WIDEBAND. You are probably fine, buy a few bucks spent at the dyno and you will have the piece of mind you are looking for. As for the midpipe, you may or may not have to port the wastegate. I didn't, some people have. You will have more than enough extra fuel available w/the PFS unit to cover the mods you list.
