HP Estimate Please.....
Stock 2004 Z06. Borla Quad Ovals.
Installing LG longtubes, Hi-Flow Random Cats, 3" X-pipe.
What RWHP increase will I see.....
....with tune and without a tune ??
Trying to decide if its worth the money to tune after the headers or wait till the blower goes on in 6 months

Not sure it's worth the $$$ to retune after a exhaust system mod. Most people don't do it for just that mod.
If you doing engine mods soon, just wait. You'll have to retune after that anyway.
Just my $.02 worth.

My car ran fine with LT headers without tuning ( I'm not saying that this is a good idea though ). I wouldn't install your headers untill your ready to install the blower. Do everything at one and get one *good* tune.

Was that 390 with or without the cats?
I was only able to pick up a couple HP with longtubes and cats, definetly not worth the money for me.
