Kooks LT Headers/Exhaust Question...

A month ago, I bought a used '10 2SS from Hendricks in NC with 12k miles and Kooks LT headers, and cat back exhaust system already installed.....great deal considering everything is covered under the 100k warranty.....anyways, the CEL came on after a day, so took it to the dealership a few times and they finally agreed to have Hendrick Motorsports write a new program for the car and they are planning to flash it on Monday....

With all that being said, will I still need a tune after they flash it? Or will they just do the minimum to get the CEL off??? According to the service guy, this will fix my car running rich and all that jazz....Anyone had a similar situation?

I would really like to know how this works out for you. I am a big Gordon fan. That would be too cool getting to take your car to Hendrick Motorsports for a tune. Wow, I think I may be just a bit jealous.

You do realize he's talking about one of dozens of Hendrick dealerships

Me too, my dealer in Richmond did a trade with a Hendrick dealership.Got the last aqua blue M6 2SS. I was not too crazy about the idea of having a car jockey driving back from Charlotte, but everything worked out.
