Default Would I need a new tune?

I already have a cam, and most of the boltons installed, the only things I am lacking are.....ported tb, underdrive pulley,and ewp. If Installed these last few boltons would it have any effect on my dynotune now, or would I need to get some more tweaking to squeeze out the best performance for them.

What kind of effect do you think? Do you think it could lean out my a/f ratio any?

well, are you still running closed loop?

if you are your fuel trims and what not will compensate for the change, but only so far.

Well I had all my work done at More Performance..but they are no longer in business. Now i'm doing some research around the area, to see who I need to get to retune my car after I install these few mods in the near future.
