You are moving more air, so you will not run richer. I have the prototype BBK LT headers on my car and have had them for two plus years with zero issues. I drove several months without the tune getting taken care of. After I had it tuned, it made a huge difference.

As of today, I'm in the ZL1's power range, without a blower.

That's not just from the headers though. What other mods have you done?
