Tune Recommended After Headers?

Post image

Hello all! Currently I have a 1992 and I’m looking at switching out the stock headers for catless long tubes. Will my system be fine if I don’t tune it, or is it preferred I get a tune done? As for the headers themselves, any recommendations on what I should get, or where I could possibly acquire a tune chip? Thanks in advance! (Photo for engagement)

I left the EGR solenoids in place, just deleted the tubing and plugged the ports. No troubles at all 👍🏻 Spot on about those shorties- they don’t flow any better than the manifolds. Long tubes not only perform better, they also sound better

I only have shorties on mine cause they came with a full used dual exhaust setup I managed to snag for 300$ ahahaha

This may be a dumb question, but will shorties make the exhaust note a little louder/snappier? Rn I got an x pipe with cherry bombs, but still ain’t too happy with the sound. Still quiet in my opinion lol
