I know my car ran like **** (rich) when i added headers after my bolt-ons without a tune. I got my tune when the cam was installed. Maybe you are suffering some power loss.

You probably lost a little torque with the headers

Im not for sure how you were able to pull 8.2's stock

most LS1's are like 8.5's and up stock with tires.
