installing 1.6 RR's, Reprogram Chip?
I plan to install Comp Pro Magnum 1.6 in my 88. I have a FASTCHIP. I emailed FASTCHIP and they said they would reprogram my chip for $150.00. Do you think it's has to be done over for this mod?

"Want to"? maybe.
I don't know about L98, but a stock LT1 can get 15-20 rwhp from tuning, so if I added mods I'd definitely consider a tune.
I guess for me it would depend on whether this was the end-goal or not. If that's all the mods you're going to do, then get it tuned. If it's just a first step, then either wait, or get the equipment to tune it yourself.
