Default After header Install?

After i install my pacesetter lt headers and ory is it pretty much necessary to get a tune so my car will run better..i think lt headers leans you out a bit right? and also what kind of tune would i need just hp tuners (if someone gots it or would i need a dyno) i also just installed my stall converter if that matters..but got the shift points tuned already....i guess a price range would help too
thanks

It makes the car run rich. I put my Lt's on 2 months ago. Still dont have a tune. If you plan on doing mods in the near future hold off on getting it tuned. Or if you feel savy enough you can buy hp tuners and tune it yourself.
For a dyno tune it will run you around 400-600. Hp tuners is like 500-600 for all the cables and what not.
good luck

its not a must, all you really have to do is adjust the fuel tables.....not pay some crackpot 400 bucks for a dyno tune
