do I need a tune?
I have a 2002 camaro SS
here's my mod list
pacesetters LT's
ORY
msd 8mm wires
magnaflow catback
and I have removed my air pump sys. I'm pretty sure I need a tune but I'm kinda short on cash and I have to drive my car to work will it hurt my car driving it without a tune with these mods? and how much hp will I gain with a tune?
And one final ? are the front and rear O2 sensors the same?
sorry for all the ?'s but I need help thanks guys

Yes, you need a tune. you will probably yeild hp gains of 15-20 with those longtube headers...
Someone might be able to help you tune it, but you have no information filled out in your profile (ex: location)

Did you get a lid yet? That'd definitely be next in line. I'd save up a little and get a tune. You've spent the money on the mods, so might as well go a little further, get a tune and make the most out of them. You'' thank yourself after, I know I did. As for the O2 sensor question, you can use the backs, I did in my car when a front one went out and it works fine to this day.

Get a Lid and if you're done with the bolts on, which it looks like you are, go get the tune and be done with it. But you are fine driving around on the stock tune with no ill effects. Look for ~ 15-20 HP with a tune.

alright thanks for the info man maybe I'll go get a tune. But do pulleys, throttle bodies, and if any other bolt ons give noticeable gains or is this just a waste of money?

there are sooooo many more bolt ons/free mods that you can do. im waiting till i get all of them done before i even think about getting a cam. a good ram air system will help at higher speeds, dont get the ftra though, get the ssra.
