Does an RS tune 'wear out' ?

I've had my RS tuning done on the car about 100K miles ago. Everything seems generally fine and ok but I wondered if it needs redoing now, not for peak power but because various engine components won't be as good as they once were?

 

in 100,000miles pretty much everything wont be as good as it once was

It's a custom mapping done by RS tuning in Leeds.

Recently the MAF and all Lambdas have been changed so I wondered if this and also any injector wear etc really mattered or if the mapping coped ok with these subtle changes.

 

Probably only Abbey have the experience to know the answer?

Be interesting to know. I think as the miles pile on, the engine will obviously be running slightly differently to how it previously was. I remember reading about a race team who did the Isle of Man TT races each year. They used to rolling road test their bikes before & after abusing them around the TT races all week. Very often the bike would be producing more power afterwards than before.
