cams require tuning so i would do both.

If you are in a bind with money and your tuner is comfortable with the program, crome is free. But Hondata is a more reputable program.

you'll never gain the power you want out of cams without tuning. you will also need valvesprings and retainers.

what header?
what exhaust?
what intake?

it matters.......

and a side note:

DO NOT INSTALL THE ECU WITHOUT A TUNING APPOINTMENT

well you could put the ecu in but it wont run right and you'll be wishing you had it tuned fast.
