Default Is this true:"???

They tell me if I bypass the cat I can gain 15hp just from that mod, but what about the 02 Sens. won't it cause the check engine light to go off?:





is there a kit that is sold for B6 models to bypass the cat and have an adapter for the 02 sens:


just wondering before I go mess my car up..







thanks.,

you'll get some gains but it won't be anywhere near 15hp, unless youre already heavily modified with a huge turbo, etc...on a stock or semi stock a4, bypassing the cat will probably get you 2-3hp
