Default Tuning After Bolt Ons?

I was just wondering if it is worth tuning my car after simple bolt on mods. intake, manifold, header, exhaust. I have an 05 so k-pro would be my only option, and its going to cost nearly 1k to get. Anyone have any input, i know the car compensates for the increased airflow, but how much?

yes it's worth a tune. with intake and exhaust you will run rich. ever notice why 90% of hondas have a nasty black spot on their read bumper around the muffler...that's why they are running rich and did mods and didn't get a tune
