Again, compression will be tested even though the car runs entirely too smooth for me to think there is an issue there.
I see what you mean, you basically didn't touch anything except the air intake. Not needing a tune is YMMV, really.. Before the intake, there was no turbo glowing. After the intake install, the turbo was red hot. Sounds too coincidential but my guess is something else went haywire.
