Shorty headers of any type if installed correctly should NOT throw a CEL.
Long tube headers will. You can actually drive around with this CEL on and it shouldn't cause any issues....basically just an emissions warning. But if you want to avoid the CEL, then yes a tune will be necessary.

I dont think the exhaust/headers/air intake/throttle bodies classify as an "engine mod".

Ok ok...I'll bite on this. I'm guessing you don't think these classify as "engine" mods because they aren't physical changes to the block itself such as a CAM. BUT (yep, you knew it was coming), not all changes are physical change. When you change the amount and rate at which air flows, it modifies (change from the original standard) how the engine behaves. Hence why so many people are worried about losing their warranty, even GM knows this. Minus exhaust, which 9/10 is an aesthetics mod (even though it helps with the excavation of exhaust gasses that were created on the engine), intake...ported throttle body...insulator...headers all have a direct affect on the performance of the ENGINE. Therefore classifying them as engine mods. Exhaust could be classified as a mod, particularly if it were setup as an "off road" type of exhaust.

Intake, LT's and exhaust will really wake up your car, just a matter of picking out what works/sounds best to you. I will caution as you have an addictive personality, once you do that there will be NO turning back and will become a very expensive habbit.
