Default ADDED SOME SLP LONG TUBES and STRAIGHT PIPES and now the car will not idle????

As the subject line states, I got rid of my shorties and added LONG TUBES and the BORLA resonator and cats and when I started it, it would stay on for a split second and dip and the car will not idle. What do you believe it is? the car has a cam and heads and everything was hooked up per instructions and it just will not idle. Could it be a back pressure issue? Is the car just not going to run without a tune? :*****: Any one got any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I just want to get it on the road and drive it, but I can't keep the car running long enough.
