Default Is tuning necessary?

I wanna do an egr delete on my 95 3.4 camaro, I am just curious if I would have to tune the computer after deleting it?
Another question, would I have any problems taking off the air pump stuff also? I don't have to worry about emissions so its not a problem to me about deleting pointless stuff.

Yes you will need a new tune. Why delete the egr and air tho?

You can delete it but your fuel milage is going to suck. If you want to delete the egr but not tune remove the unit and pit some plates over the hole in the headers and the intake. Then bolt the egr back on and plug it in.
