If we unbolt the cat from the header, will we get a CEL? I'm planning on running open header at the 1/4 mile track weds. If we get a CEL, will our car run in safe mode? tia

 

damn ricer....lol...j/k.....I also want to know this question because me and alex are gonna go out there together. TIA

 

yes but who cares if it is on for only one night. End of the night, put everything back and reset the ecu...cha ching, back to normal.

Don't forget to unplug the O2 sensor before dropping the cat or you might damage with wiring.

If it was me, I wouldn't bother cause of lazy factor. You won't see huge gains. You'll probably see more gains taking off your accessory belts and light weighting your car.

So how do people run open header without the car running weaker?

 

Just cause your CEL is on doesn't mean you are in limp mode.

 

so in other words...we can run open header, wont put us in limp mode, but we;ll just have an annoying cell??

 

The CEL for not having a second O2 sensor won't affect your car.

I had to run an open header on the street once. That was embarrassing. I'd take a fart exhaust over that anyday.

 

ok that was the answer i was looking for. thanks tommy gunns.

 

hehe, I never knew ITR's ran on a Windows OS.

 

, now you know

 

thanks for the input

 

Alex, just learn how to drive!

Seriously hough, just dump the spare/tools an take off your p/s belt.
