Default headers and GT, do you need to....

i was wondering if i got headers on my 01 GT if i would NEED to upgrade the ecu or anything? i've heard about it running rich or whatnot, but is it required? was just going to run I/H/E for it, thanks!

NO need for anything BUT and SAFC getting tuned for the headers will get you and extra 10WHP or so

so the headers and exhaust and i'm good to go? i know tuning would be awesome, will probably get done in the future, but as of right now no. its a travel car as well, and on a different forum ( cant remember which ) they had a sticky that you need to upgrade to a SAFC because headers will make it run rich... didn't make sence to me

You dont HAVE to but youshould for the best power.... and gas milage would be better after tuning it, but still it wont make the car run bad without it
