Default A tune?

I wasn't able to get any responces to my Q's so I figured I can post here.

Well folks I finally got the last pc of the puzzle and installed all my toys at once inthe engine. Here is the list:

Crawford Plenium
Ingen Intake
7 pc grounding kit
Cooling Plate (thanks RX Performence)
TiC Greedy Dual Exhaust (Thanks to Performence factory)
Top Speed Headers (thanks fto Performence Factory)
Ichiba test pipes (Thanks RX Performence)
Samco Hoses

Note: the top bolt on the Plenium is not the right one. (not the right fit, so I was aware of it leaking) I will be fixing that glitch. Other than that, the car pulls AWSOME on 1st and 2nd gear but you can feel the loss of power or the "hesitation" on 3rd and 4th. Could that be cause of the lose bolt, or could be a another leak in the headers or somewhere else?

Also, do I need a tune? If so would I be needing any new chips UTEC ext...

I will be posting pics soon.

Nice to see another Tampa guy posting, but you might want to read a bit. Check out the "Tuning" forum and read up on Osiris, flashing, UTEC, Haltech... things like that.

I'd recommend letting Jeremy Tibbs at the Performance Factory tune your car. Looks like he put your headers on, so you should be familiar with his shop.

Maybe a Mod can move this to the "Tuning" section.
