Hey guys im New to the forum, and I love this site I have a 2006 v6 automatic, I recently added pyps Headers, true duals no x or h pipe, BBK throttle body, and KN air filter.
My question do I have to tune my car to run better, for some reason I feel my Air/Fuel ratio is off, can it be possible with these mods.
yea, you definetly need a tune for that throttle body and even though the K&N might not require a tune i would definetly recommend it, you need to be very careful because if your running lean which is probably the case you might start to burn stuff up, i could be wrong on the throttle body but i am almost positive that needs a tune.
A tuner should be a future mod anyways, you need it for most of your mods

Don't need a tune for the TB... it's when you change the size of the MAF housing that you need a tune...
A tune is a very good idea thought, especially since the OP has an automatic!
the only long tube headers made for the v6 (to my knowledge are MAC) but i think i just saw a video that showed KOOKS just came out with one as well so i assumed pypes headers were shorties.

Gotcha. It does look like Pypes only offers a shorty.
