Hey sorry to bump an old thread, but I have a very simple question. What are the codes for catless dowpipes? I just want to make sure that after I get my car back from the shop, they're the only codes my car is throwing (presuming my procede doesn't suppress them).
Thanks.

Thanks.

THe top two codes should appear. the third one should appear if the O2's are switched. and the car will run like shit and you should also get misfire codes.

but if done right you should only get first 2 codes

While I'm an avid enthusiast of the DIY mentality, unless you know what you're doing you will always run the risk of installing them incorrectly.

LOL im wayy past this. i was still a "noob" (old thread) now I'm replacing turbos got a stud stuck in engine head FML so downpipes are currently a joke to install and least of my worries..

Easy.
but great consumer service. and i might pickup an exhaust system from y'all pretty soon when my car is running

I think that was directed at me

You've been great Tiago, I just didn't want to bother you about something so small. The first shop I stupidly gave my car to botched the install, I'm just waiting to get the car back from my regular mechanic who I should have given my car to in the first place.
