well the car still runs good no problems just that the light came on 2 days after installation, is it because its still on the factory tune can this hurt anything basically no headers just this ory i bought of a member with all the o2 openings should i worry or just get it retune when i install my ls6 manifold?

It is because you now have no cats.
You can get O2 simulators or you can get the code tuned out.

but it wont hurt anything right? o2 simulators? more info...... my o2 censors are connected to the mid pipe it had the openings for them!

It won't hurt anything.

Those sensors tell you if you have a failing cat or not. Obviously you don't have cats anymore so the sensor is going to think that the cat is screwed up.

No, it won't hurt a thing. Basically your car is throwing codes saying that your catalyst efficiency is below threshold, duh, you have no cats. Its no big deal. The o2 simulators are little plugs that you can plug into the rear o2 connections that will simulate having cats and rear o2's - no codes. You will have to leave the o2's plugged in to fill the hole, or I have heard you can plug them with oil drain plugs for a certain car.

Thanks guys i am a retard i know lol, but just wanted to make sure it would be ok....... ill just tune the code off when i put the ls6 manifold w/ egr provisions. I am trying to go with the sleeper look with a 224 cam and supporting valvetrain. Yes i know i will make more power with headers, but i don't want them period.

Don't worry about. Everyone has to learn sometime.

Sounds like a good setup to me.

Sleeper, sneaky sneaky, make sure you get the 114 LSA on that cam. If you wanted something other than stock manifolds but remain smog leagal, Edelbrock shorties would help with plug access, they look better and would provide marginal gains. You can also get a SLP y-pipe and an electric cutout.

The plan I had long ago was:
243's, TR224 cam, SLP lid, ported TB, LS6 intake mani, Edelbrock shorties, SLP Y-pipe, electric cutout. Should be good for maybe 370-380rwhp.

yeah i saw a guy at the track the other day with a stock looking 02 ss car, basically just lid exhaust on 315 mickeys hit 11.90's all day long, he popped his hood and he had stock manifolds looked stock lol just a lid..... he had the 114 lsa cam but you guys think 112 will be to noticeable even if i quiet down my catback?

the ory i have just installed yesterday i am going to make a clip for you guys sounds cool but i might tone it down!

A TR224 on a 112 will still lope slightly, if you want to be stealthy, go with a 114 LSA, plus you have a better shot at passing smog.

true, but the 112 sounds sooooo good will see

ss.slp.ls1

iTrader: (36)

agreed. but you cant sound sooo good and be a sleeper at the same time.

i know lol yeah more than likely 114 lsa, its just hard to find one of those used in good condition

You need O2 sims. You can usually find used one's pretty cheap.
