Header questions
Header questions well finally i got my headers and ory on!! I unpluged all the egr and air and capped it off and soon hopefully make it down for a tune! My question is since i dont have it uned will it run like crap and be very poppy sounding. Just seems to be running rough
it will run like crap at first, until the computer adjusts itself. after that it will run just fine. if you tune it, it will definitely run better though. think of a tune as a fine honing process. 
if you have any popping sounds or noises check your spark plugs and spark plug wires. now go enjoy your new found power!

How long will it take for the car to adjust? I forgot to add ijust unpluged my rear o2s for now

i was running really lean after my header and ory install

I did headers and cam at the same time and ran tuneless for the better part of a year. No difference that I could tell, but it was just a numbers game in the end. Not the biggest cam in the world either. 224.

Sounds like you have another issue like a cracked plug, intake leak or something else. Headers and ORY will not make it run much different than stock so look for something else that is messing up the computer.

not much changed from installign the macs/ory i was around 12.1 A/F ratio on the dyno and then a couple days ago, my buddy logged it with the LM1 and the leanest it got was 12.4 A/F the midrange is a beast now. Ill wait to get hte car tuned until the cam gets in though
well i was going to go saturday to new era performance but the looks of the weather im not gonan be im upstate ny at the tippy top and its bad some days here! I took it out tonight for 20 miles or soo and its rough, would unplugging the egr air and rear o2s make it worse ?
