You should tune it just to obtain more power, but if you dont want that, keep it as it.

Doesn't matter whether you do it before or after the tune, the ECU will adjust to the hardware changes regardless.

Now you know exhaust and filters do not add as much as the vendors seem to claim.

The HP does look quite decent at 160 whp. The HP rating is at the crank. The difference is roughly 15-20 percent less at the wheels.
