If you want to learn to tune, just get hptuners or ls1edit and start tyring it out and figuring out how to tune. They are good write ups too on how to tune. If the exhaust is making you run rich the you will get gains with a good tune.

With headers, tuning would be a benefit. Handheld tuners are not much help in tuning for specific mods and every car will respond differently. Best thing to do is to get HP Tuners or EFILive and learn to do it yourself. The benefit is you can tune to your hearts content and you learn new things about your car.
