Should I get my hatch tuned after the swap goes in?

mods will be:

skunk2 pro mani  
tb ported to match mani  
intake  
header

worth it?

you’ll certainly gain from a tune… how much though, who knows.

I would definately tune, with all that extra airflow (however much it may be) your ECU will be compensating by dumping a lot of extra fuel into the chamber, thereby washing your rings out, lowering your gas mileage, fouling the cat, etc. Depending on what your tuning device is, see if someone with a simlar setup can shoot you a base map appropriate for your engine

I would suggest holding off on a tune if you are just running stock cams with that set-up as the cams will still be limiting air flow. Get a tune when/if you replace the cams.
