Anyone else see the correlation between the username and the double post? When anything is changed a retune is required to make the best of the change.

Headers would probably benefit from some cam timing revision. If you wanna send me what you have I probably have a good base for you to start from (assuming your tune is unlocked and editable).

thank you for the response.

unfortunately I don't know how to "send you what i have." As far as I know it's an ECUtek tune and I got it on the Mustang dyno. I asked them if I should wait to get headers before i got the tune and if I would have to get it retuned afterwards, but they told me that all i needed was a reflash later on... but others are telling me otherwise, so I'm just confused.

chances are it's a locked tune, so you'll need to go back to whoever tuned it and have them retune it for you. it's not a necessity, but the car would benefit from it.
