You need a tune for the new cam.

You don't need one but even if you just do headers you should get a tune to get the most out of it. I think 1 7/8s headers will give you more Hp with a aftermarket cam.

The only chip your gonna get are potato chips because you cant chip these cars. The factory ecu can be tuned. No need for a aftermarket one.

If you get a cam you will 100% need a tune.
