Default going with long tube headers and have a ?

Would I need a tune with this or is it just bolt up and go? I'm going with JBA lt's and their o/r h-pipe

You dont need a tune but I would say get it so your stang will know what the heck is going on and run better... not to mention that you'll know your gains as well

You 'can' drive it without a tune, but wouldn't you want to get every extra pony you could out of that 1K investment? Get a tune and be happy.

Okay, so get a hand held tuner, or go have a custom tune at the local performance shop?
