whew just got done no CEL how heav is the stock cat whoa...........................!! I was suprised at weight diff.........

Everything came off easy since already had exhaust and header installs a few months back. The defouler o2 sims wor perfect, used 2 of them and no CEL.

To not twist the wire is very simple. Just slide cat around in a circle, dont even move the 02. Same with test pipe, just spiin 02 in a circle

Hardest part was getting the damn exhaust off the stock cat man.............isntall of new test pipe was cake compared ot taking off stock cat. Hoping I'm at high 290s close to 300 now

I just washed my car for the first time since my test pipe went on. The rear bumper area surrounding the exhaust outlet had a nasty yellow film that was a BITCH to get off.

It's worth it for the sound though

SilverKnight don't be hasty.. the CEL will not show up immediately. Wait until you've been through two tanks of gas before you celebrate

I've put about 4k miles on my berk withno CEL.. go O2 fix

This depends on which brand of testpipe you buy. Some come with a built-in extender, however, some of these "extensions" are not long enough or not at the correct angle and you may still have to improvise. On a test pipe that has no such extension, then yes, you use 2. The first one is drilled out to accommodate the sensor and the other one is left as is. Go read the link. Here it is again:
