You gained a stinky exhaust pipe....LOL!!! After your OBD2 ECU has a chance to attempt to fix whatever it thinks the problem is you may even lose some TQ & HP... I know I did . Get something to use for tuning and you can keep the power you gained by installing it

But I think I am the only one...LOL (at least according to most of the people on here
thanks u seem the only 1 that knows what there talking about...
