Problems/Service/Maintenance Do you have problems with your new 2.0, 2.2, or 2.4L? What kind of service did you have done?

Any help or ideas appreciated

Any help or ideas appreciated

I recently installed a magnaflow 2.5 catback and xtc 2.5 dp with high flow cat. My car threw a cel saying catalist efficiency below level, and system running to lean. I had an exhaust leak as well so i copper thcd that up and just got my gmpp header installed today and im still getting the same problem. Theres no leaks anymore and everything has new gaskets/hardware. Cannot figure out the problem. Anyone? This is pissing me off. I never drive it now and take the streetbike everywhere.
