Headers

I have a 2015 camaro ss l99 and I was wondering is there a major power loss when doing the headers w/ x-pipe and muffler delete?

Properly tuned they increase your power, not reduce it........why would anyone do that?

I have Kooks headers, Magnaflow x pipe, and muffler delete and I gained a good amount of power.

I guess I should’ve been more clear.
I’m more concerned with the time in between the install and tune.
My tuner can be very busy at times and wasn’t sure of it was that drastic for the time being or should I just wait to I stall once the tuner is ready?

I’d wait to get the most out of the upgrade. These cars can be sensitive to changes not done with upgraded tuning.
