Default RR-Racing Tune & Ark Exhaust Install sequence

Sup guys, so I bit the bullet on buying the ECU tune, air intake and the Ark Grip exhaust. I wanted to check with the forum on what the best sequence of install is. Which component should I install first?

I would say get the exhaust first then intake and ecu. So you don't have to flash your car multiple times.

We are finding the tune works best with the exhaust vs. with stock system. Generally speaking, the reduced backpressure seems to allow the ECU to increase ignition learning more than with stock exhaust.

Thanks Rafi, so you recommend installing the exhaust and intake and then tune the ECU.
