    Do I need a Tuner after header install?

    Installing long tubes on my '01 formula A4. Will I need to have computer reprogrammed? Thanks

    I would get it dyno tuned, you most likely are running lean now.

    Don't LT's make it go rich?

    But yeah...a good tune would find you more power and prevent any issues with fuel trims.
