Just to clear things up, I spoke to REM today and was assured that the new tube is a DIRECT replacement, with NO TUNE NEEDED. They have matched the MAF diamater in this version, so it's "Plug and Play" Another user on NLOC slapped his on last night with no codes as well.

Can't wait to slap this badboy in. I'm going to have to mod my PSP box a tad, but I'll make it work.

Im actually interested in the tune being needed or not aspect. I love the way that carbon fiber looks and want one for myself, but I have questions about cracking, and if I'll need a tune. Be sure to post your experiences please.
