new tune for shorties & h-pipe addition?

Getting ready to add FRPP shorties and an MRT H-pipe with high-flow cats to my 2001 GT. When I had Doug at BamaChips do my SCT Xcal2 torque tune (with the K&N FIPK and Accufab 75mm TB/plenum), he had to get my an adjusted tune due to detonation. The new tune was fine but now I have additional mods to install. Will I need to get a further adjusted tune when I have the MRT catted H-Pipe and Ford shorties added due to increased airflow?

I would probably put it on the dyno to see how it affected the A/F, but might as well see how much gain there was from the new additions if nothing else.

it probably wont have that much effect on the tune to where you have to get a new one. but if you want every last bit of power it wont hurt

FYI. Car runs and sounds great without any adjusted tune. FRPP shorties, MRT H-Pipe w/cats and borla cat-back sound nice together. Now I just need to get with the stupid dealer to fix the stuff they broke. Broke my headlight, AC is not working as well and my polished accufab has been etched by a coolant leak they caused while slicing a pressurized hose while putting in the FRPP shorties. Always something.
