Default Remap/Exhaust Query

So my car (97 V70R 4.4 Motronic) has a Stage 1 MTE remap done by a previous owner at Kalmar Union way back in 2005. 18 months ago I fitted a JT Tuning 3" turboback exhaust with 200cel cat.

Whilst the car is plenty quick enough for the likes of me; the question remains: should the map be re-done/tuned/tweeked in any way to take full adavantage of the exhaust, or is the original remap sufficient??

I also the have MTE stage 1 on my S70R.

My understanding is the map should be tweaked to accomodate such changes in an ideal world.

I think Don has never been great with emails but spot on with a call. I would try calling.

Alternatively, I'm at the Volvotuning trackday on Friday and I'll ask him if he's there.
