If they are installed and uninstalled carefully, you should be fine!

really? the chip or computer won't detect that?

jadeddjay · 08-26-2008, 03:46 PM

are you planning on using a chip?

the new progman probably will detect changes unless you use something thats compatible like v3 or jb3 or something... probably need some o2 simms as well or do the o2simm diy that shiv posted.

I thought that the factory pipes have some sort of clearcoat that indicates whether they have been removed/tampered with? Is this true?

Also, Andrew, do you know if this fits the Xi coupe yet? Thanks

i do plan on running a chip, so am i suppose to wait to add it? or can i add the chip later and then still remove everything so its undectable?

i have no idea... but from a logical stanpoint, i would say get your chip first... that way you can optimize your tune for the dps to get as much out of them as you can. chip you pick out might also have o2 sim function as well which will save you some hassle.

plus you get way more power out of a chip than you ever will with just dps

JoeyFiasco · 08-27-2008, 09:33 AM

not sure about the procede but I know/read that the JB3 is currently not compatible with Dp's because of the amount of torque the vehicle will have. the vehicle will work and will have greater performance, but you will likely get a CEL. BMS is working on a new map to maintain invisibility.

v3 has a stage 2 map thats made for full exhaust (zero cats) +intake and its supposed to be compatible with the new progman

JoeyFiasco · 08-27-2008, 03:48 PM

Cool, so no codes with V3
