Default Gutted Downpipes...
OK... I have had bad luck with posting on my forum... Either there isn't anybody that can help me or you ladies just HATE me...

Whatever... I'm gonna give it another shot...

I recently took off my downpipes to take off my Tranny for a clutch replace... So i decided to gut my downpipes... But why stop there... I decided to go the extra mile and remove the main cats too... So How can I get my car to run right and not have a CEL...???

The problem is... I know a lot of guys that have used these and their CEL kept going on??? If they work so good why do people remove and replace the o2 senser when they gut the precats???

When you make Piggies, you are suppose to move the secondary O2's to after the primary cat. Sometimes with just that the light will never come on.

You must be thinking of something other than the ELE's from vast. There was a anti fouler trick that never workedvery well and I have seen several people try to copy them butMy self and several other people I know have them on our cars and none of us have cats. Not one CEL so far.

Why stop at the main cats? Why don't you just drain your old motor oil right into the ground. Heck, why even stop there. Go the extra mile and doanything else you can to ruin the Earth.

You deserve a check engine light you . Put your cats back on and be responsible to your environment.
