Alright heres my question the installation went as smooth as butter sounds great to. So My SES light turned on which means that I need to go get some MILS which i'm gonna go do right now. Heres the thing I read somewhere in this forum that when your SES light turns on your motor goes into limp mode is that true? Cause i sorta feel it a little sluggish....I also read that the air fuel mixure gets all screwed up are any of these true? The reason why i ask is because when i try to rev the car its sorta a late response, and when i had the stock h-pipe the car would respond as soon as i hit the gas? Any suggestions? Would the MILS help as soon as the SES light turns off the car will be running the way it suppose to be? Thanks guys

did you plug in the front o2 sensors? if so, its not in limp mode.

the front sensors determine the a/f ratio, while the rear 2 sensors monitor to see if the cats are working correctly.

the reason you think that it doesnt respond as quick on revs is becasue there is alot less back pressure now. Generally with an x-pipe you'll lose some power down low, but gain twice as much in the upper rpm range. Just unplug the batery for a few minutes and then hook it back up. Should be fine.

So Ive installed those Mils I got some BBK ones for about 70 bucks and so far so good! No SES light cars running really good and the sound is Awesome other than a little too much garble. Soon will be gone when I get my Borla Cat Back......I got 40 Series Flows and it just garbles to much nice and loud though!

I had the Bassani/Flows combo and i must say, it sounds soooo freakin mean and nasty. I always got compliments, but it might be a bit too raspy for some
