Default retune needed?

My car has light bolt-ons, ported intake, ported exhaust manifold, vararam, ported Throttle body.

If I remove the ported TB and put the stock TB back on, Will i need a retune? or have any issues?

Thanks!

Did you get it tuned after you added those other mods? If you didn't, and the car ran fine then I would think you'd be ok without a tune. I don't see guys getting tunes after adding just the TB's.

No you wont need a retune or a touch up. Just swap and go.
