I just put hooker lt headers and 3" exhaust with a X pipe and bullet mufflers. Do i need to have my tune adjusted for this?

You don't need to but you will see the best results/most gains from the headers if you get a proper dyno tune.

Oh ok, then you really shouldn't need to redo it, you did make some notable changes but that old tune should still be fine for an 'exhaust only' change IMO.
