Cat delete

Wanna do a cat delete on my car but the rear O2 sensor going off is what has kept me from doing it. Any way without a tune that I could go catless? I'm in Florida, no regulations for exhaust.

Those angled rear O2 housings are said to work fantastic.

The de-foulers work well, at least for the LNFs I can say they do. I'll check hptuners to make sure that code can be shut off, pretty sure it can thou

Too bad service takes so long now. I'm glad I have '07+ and regret that HPT will never be adding 05-06 support.

I have HPT and am in Florida. Daytona area. If you are near Ormand, PC, or St Auggie I will shut the codes off for you. It will cost you $100 though because I do not have your motor unlocked.

so if I get an angled O2 pipe it would be okay? I know zzp sells a down pipe with the angled O2 sensor option.

okay, thanks man. Are there any performance chips that works for a 2.2 or so chips even work? I've heard that performance chips work and then I read that they don't work and their bad for your engine.

Agreed, canned performance chips are junk and a waste of money

that's what I thought but wasn't sure if there was something I didn't know of. I heard jet performance chips throw codes and **** up the engine.

Why trust a "chip" made in china and programmed by people that don't even know what a cobalt is. All those "chips" do is **** with the signals the ecu uses. I would rather reprogram the ecu then try and trick it and possibly **** my can-bus system ******* with some commie crap. No thanks, HPTuners or Trifecta for the muthafuckin win.
