I'm putting a CAI and Alpha side exit exhaust on my SL.
Is it necessary to tune it, or do the sensors and ECU compensate for the changes?
I'm confused about this "tuning", is it just a reflash of the ECU, or a Dyno tuned map?

You don't need a tune after a CAI and Alpha exhaust. The ECU will compensate for the changes.
But a tune from Bob @MEFIburn will greatly improve your performance and drivability.
Yes it is a Dyno tuned map.

You have to send the ECU to @MEFIburn to get tuned.
They are the only one who can tune a Slingshot ECU at the moment.
Apparently he created the map on the dyno with a slingshot. But as we know not all CAI and exhaust are created equal so I guess you can consider it a "generic" tune that is much better than the stock.. The much better part is the opinion of the many folks on here who have had it done and not my personal opinion since I haven't had it done.

so that when you set the speedo to KPH, it reads correctly.

If you want to know which values where changed you need to talk with Bob the tuner, he told me he changed about 4000 values in about 10 tables.
The tune could void your warranty like every other tune could, if Polaris can proof that the tune was the reason for the warranty claim.

After living in Europe for so long finding the top speed for a SS is just not interesting to me. If some one starts measuring bottom to top parking structure timing or Shenendoa Vally route 33 times (heaven) then I'll be interested.

In July I was playing with a Corvette on I-90 West bound just West of Bozeman MT. He pulled in front of me and hit it. I was doing 90 mph in 5th, so I removed my cap, and punched it. When I quickly caught up with him I looked at my cell phone in it's holder on my windshield support mount. I have a GPS speed app. It indicated 145 mph. I smiled. He didn't know what I was in, but was surprised.
Love that Alpha Turbo and the Carbon Fiber Wing.

Tell me Saul, what's this Carbon Fiber wing? Which turbo do you have? Could we see some pictures of your setup? Thanks

Ennis...put a deposit down in December, got one of the first SS in Texas after law passed. A good friend in Lubbock titled his in NM so hot lapped it back then and was sold immediately. Spudinator is a good friend. We Got them both the same day...been smokin tires ever since headed to the Motorplex ASAP
On Saul's recommendation I went with the wing and also added the front splitter. Noticeable difference at the rear, I think the Bilstein shock set up helped even more. For lack of a suitable place to push to the max 102 was the best I have had so far. There was definitely more there. Only engine mods were CAI and Exhaust.

According to the Slingshot speedo I've had mine as high as 180, completely stock 2015 limited edition. I think it had a little more but didnt find out.
The reason the speedo goes to 220 is because it's a universal seedometer, meaning that it can be switched between MPH and KPH. So that way it's legal in Canada,
My machine was bought and runs up here in Canada so speedo is switched over, gotcha, lol
