Tune needed with headers??
Hey guys,
I am thinking about putting headers on my bone stock 2002 Z06 (so far just zip tie mod). They would be 1 3/4" long tubes.
What kind of tune would I need, or, what changes to the factory tune would be needed for this?
I can find some used new headers easy enough and stuff, and a buddy and myself were gonna split on the HP tuner. But I want to make sure this car runs as good as possible compared to stock.
What have you guys had to do for tunes with headers?
Local tuners here for me are not really an option.
Thanks

Headers gained me 18 rwhp the tune picked up an additional 12 rwhp. If you want the most optimized combo I suggest getting it tuned. You could run around without a tune, but you are leaving some power on the table.

Do you guys know much about Dynatech 1 3/4" LTs?
If so do they fit decent?
