About to buy AR DP's....HELP!

08-335 · 02-29-2012, 12:35 PM

So I am looking at buying a set of AR DP's and I need to know one thing:

I am running the cobb tune, do I need a DP fix? Does everyone get codes thrown?

Install-I am not worried about but tips are appreciated!

Regards,
Zachary

you load Stage 2 and no dps codes

Save your money and buy VRSF Dp's and a FMIC.

and yes Stage 2 will clear the codes for you, so no worries.

I believe you still need the dp fix when you take it in for emissions test.

Yep. COBB will clear the code and when you go for emissions it will read "NOT Ready"/"Imcomplete" or something along those lines. If IL does not care about readiness codes then you will be fine, otherwise get the DP fix.

I got the DP fix for emission testing....its painless, the shop that installs your DP's can put in the fix. Its not that expensive...

The Cobb Stage 2 tune will eliminate the CEL from the dash!

Are you able to set OBD Readiness codes though? That's what's important!

Cobb stage2 has them built in. Stage1 does not.

You still need the dp fix. Cobb clears the code, but you won't pass emissions testing. I have both dp fix and cobb.

I swap my stock pipes in for emissions testing...

That is correct as the Cobb tune will autoclear the CEL and prevent it from showing up. However, you will need the DP Fix if your going for emissions testings to check for readiness etc.
