So I fabbed it at work took about 5 hours total, to make it and fit it. Total cost? 120 bucks and a little sweat.. So, the out come of not running a Cat with the rear O2 sensor? Am I pulling a code? The answers to both, it runs Fabulously with no codes as of two days of driving. What is the trick? I followed some advice from a tip on here I ran the 2nd O2 sensor into a slightly bored out spark plug non-fowler (sp?) and it runs like a champ! But has my gas mpg gone down not having a true exact reading of the 2nd O2? As of now I haven't noticed a loss in mpg. (minus me stomping the accelerator) and as for sound and performance not running a cat with a 2.5" downpipe? Just as smooth and quite as before except an added exhaust wush during spoolup (VERY nice sounding but no extra db.) and the performance more solid boost alot sooner and a noticed gain in torque n pull sooner and longer! As for my opinion, 120 bucks for a beautiful sound and power gain with a concervative sleeper downpipe look? Simply wonderful!!!!
