majority of the time it won't affect anything on the truck...



now if you use inferior cats, then yes you'll get a CEL, and if your SOP dyno isn't calibrated correctly, you won't feel any performance gains either

they bolt right in



it's the mid pipe that needs the work, and since you're re-doing your exhaust anyway it's no big deal
