Default Engine sort of mis fire

I just installed Dynateck long tube high flow cats and TI cat backs no tune yet.

I took it out for a spin and i noticed some hesitation sort of mis fire inbetween shift but not at WOT. Aperently im told and from theads on the forum the computer must re adjust to this mod. I also have an Hallteck air intake. I made shure that all plug wires are well connected.
Do I drive it for X# of miles so that the computer adjust to the new air flow ? Please advice

O2 sensors crossed, perhaps?

Yes. About 50 miles at varying speeds should do it.

Also if you removed you injectors banks to install the header make sure that they are all seated correctly.
