The AVP Stage 1 Performance Twin Turbo Kit is designed to work safely on a stock 3.5L EcoBoost with the factory tune, so a tuner is not required just to replace worn factory turbos. That said, adding a custom tune can help you take full advantage of the upgraded billet wheels and improved spool, picking up extra power and drivability if you decide to go that route later.
