Does changing or upgrading your Maf require a retune?

yes for the afm as the upgraded afm (z32 or why) has a larger scale in which is can read the air flow and because of that it sends different signals to the ecu at these air flows. so re tune is a must as for injectors as the duty cycle etc will have to change with larger cc injectors
