Hi guys, installed a set of VRSF DPs yesterday and today the aFe stage 2 pro 5R intake came on. When driving home from the shop a CEL came on for the first time since I got the car. Plugged in my COBB AP and read the codes:
P29F5, catalyst conversion 2 P29F4, catalytic conversion Cleared the codes but I have no idea if everything is alright, so could you please give me some input? And yes, I'm a newbie to the tuning game. thx, OB |

I was under the impression that as long as you use one of the cobb maps specifically designed for downpipes, codes shouldn't trip. Did you get trip the codes before loading a dp map?

I don't mean to thread jack, but I was running Cobb stage 1 before I had the VRSF DP installed. After they were installed, I didn't get any codes and they still didn't show after driving for a few miles. I installed stage 2 to be on the safe side. Not to complain, but anyone experience no code also when installing DP? Just wondering why some ppl got the codes and I didn't. I don't have the DP fix btw

The install is proper, I think. Running stage 1 but don't see why it should matter if it's st. 1 or 2.
If it's just standard codes due to the cat removal, then I'm happy.

Alright, sounds good. Waiting For my IC before switching to st.2, but maybe I'm ok since it's -10 degrees celsius over here..?

Stage 2 requires dp's, recommends catback exhaust, and recommends dci. Stage 2+ requires dp's, requires intercooler, requires dci, and recommends catback exhaust. |

Not to thread jack but my vrsf dps will be going on soon and I have a jb4. Will I need the dp fix or will the jb4 take care of my codes and they won't pop up

Thought that it was possible to run any map and still have no CEL related to the DPs. When it's time for inspection, then I'll have to run a st.2 map or get a DP fix, is that correct? |

Once you get the tune squared away, you'll be fine. Nothing is really wrong right now
