2" HEADERS WITHOUT TUNE

Sup, wondering has anybody installed any headers and drove with out a tune & for how long? I know CEL will appear. I will be getting a tune but I am going the impatient route and wanting to install them already lol.

Wait for it....


Tuneless headers are kinda missing the point.

If you have emissions in your state/county, don't do it or you won't pass due to the permanent code set for the O2 sensors.

This has been asked many times, here is just one example. Also, you don't really need 2" headers unless you are planning a supercharger in the future.

See, this is why I am glad I'm not rich, nor am I a mechanic. I can't rush the install as a mechanic, and I'm too broke to pull the trigger right away and possibly make a mistake or forget something needs to be done.

Patience young one. HP not going anywhere, and is up for grabs by anyone at any time.
