Tune after Cutouts installed???

Hey guys,
Doing some reaserch on getting exhaust cutouts. Ive now been told a custom tune is a must after and also that you wouldent need tune for them.

What do you guys think? Any experience? Any technical explanations(i.e. either AFR doesnt change)?

Thanks for any help.

They're post cat cut out's so you shouldn't need any tune for more power. Now if you put them pre-cat, then you may get some extra power with them. The Porsche guys like to put them in Pre-cats.
