Catless downpipes on a march 08 car

Well I installed my riss racing catless downpipes today

Not looking good so far. I have Jb1 installed as well as Terry's o2 Sims. The car sputters and i got a "reduced power" mode with check engine light.


Im not happy at all and will most likely uninstall the downpipes

It was your choice of course, but why didnt you wait until the progman fix was certain? I hope you don't have issues in the future with the evil corporation.

it will work fine after u get some o2 sensors with the right strength from terry. Or if that doesn't work shiv has a fix for it on v3(which should be ready for v81 fairly soon hopefully).

Look here: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ighlight=simms
