I just ordered a Magnaflow O/R X and Catback (not the magnapack). I was gonna buy Bassani but changed my mind. I was just wondering, don't I need a some other things for it? The shop I orderd it from wasn't very helpful and won't even install it but they were the cheapest.

So dose anything else need to be orderd so that my CEL wont come on or other problems won't occur wont come on.

Thanks

MIL eliminators I believe, thats it.

And installing it requires one socket, so save some cash and do it yourself

Order some MIL eliminators to get rid of the SES light that you'll get with the o/r x-pipe. Also, i'd recommend a 10" extension, swivel joint, and a 18mm socket to get to the passenger side exhaust manifold nuts. Good luck and don't forget to disconnect the battery or you'll arc your starter

Yea you can use the handheld programmer to turn off the SES light without buying MIL's
