anyone with lunati T1
i just put one in my car, 221/221 .558/.558 112lsa and i was wondering how your car ran right upon completion? i started mine up just fine, and let it run about 15 min, changed the oil and then let run about 5 more min. then the next day i was going to drive it to town to get my exhaust put on since it was just open headers, and after about 3 miles it started running like chit and did not want to stay running. i guess what i am asking is do you have to have a tune immidiatly after the install, or should you be able to drive it to the tuners? i also put on long tubes and a lid and filter if that makes much difference.
thanks
thanks

i hauled the car to the exhaust shop and had my y pipe put on, so now should it be able to run without a tune since it no longer has open headers? don't get me wrong, i am going to get it tuned, but it is just really running crappy

When I first installed my T1, I just drilled out the hole in the throttle body a little bit and it ran fine. It took a few miles for the computer to relearn, but after that, it ran fine. I ran it untuned for a couple of weeks with no issues.
