Hi all,
Just a quick one, I have acquired some used short tors, do I have to have them set up by triumph for tune or can I just put them on?

There are tunes for short tors. When I fitted mine I ran for quite a while with the standard tune before having the dealer upload the correct tune. I didn't notice any problems or feel any great benefit, before or after retune.

Stick em on. If you don't want to tune yourself (like me) go speak to a dealer and negotiate a tune, upload only takes 10-mins.

Or buy yourself a ??5 obd2 cable from Hong Kong, download tune-ecu and do it yourself using your laptop.

I put a pair of short TORs on my 1700 and have been running with the stock tune with no problems. I have been waiting until I need to service the air filter before I put on a K&N and then I will download a different tune.
