running without tune???

how bad should my car run with out a tune? i just did cam swap with full rollers. it wants to cut off when you give it gas while driving but idles and revs normal. all mods are in sig. Also how much horsepower yall think i will be pushing after tune and lt headers? Can i order a tune before headers or is it better to wait until after?

Check your vacuum lines. The one on the fuel press. regulator too. It should run ok,but you really need a tune. As far as HP,after a good tune 330 @ the tires,maybe.

If you don't know how to set valve lash don't drive it until you find somebody who can help you or you'll bend a valve.

If your valve lash is far off your car won't run good, or at all in some cases.
