What are you trying to ask? From reading your sig, I see that you're running the same setup that you're asking questions about?



If you run an off-road y-pipe, you either get the rear O2's deleted (LS1Edit or HPTuners), or you buy O2 sims for the rear. If you don't mind the SES light, then you don't really have to worry about anything. No performance is lost.

So do you have the mods in your sig ?

Once my sims were hooked up right, I can definately tell a difference in performance. The exhaust is now louder and it just feels like it grew bigger *****. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a difference between night and day...but definately a difference.

So if you take the cats off you don't "need" O2 sims as long as you don't mind looking at the SES light. Mine is already on because of EGR so it wouldn't bother me if that's the case.

You sir must have been high on crack to notice a difference. All the rear o2 sensors do is tell if the cats are working for emissions purposes.

fine in florida for no cats i think is $10,000...no clue about dumping the exhaust....however in florida there are only a few counties that even have emissions checks...my dad's dealership used to get checked once a year...
