Offroad H-pipe questions

[Mlpauley]

So right now i have the flowmaster super 44 cat back system on my 98 gt and in an hour or so im going to be installing my offroad h-pipe i got from jegs. I heard that a tune is a must have after installing the offroad h-pipe. Is this true? And how can i get it tuned if so?

why would you need a tune for just taking your cats off?? you are not doing anything to the motor. And good call on the H pipe i just put one on my 95 gt they are really nice sounding. Good luck with that

maybe they mean to clear the CEL if you dont get the MIL eliminators...

first off

way to be smart and get a h pipe for less than 170....it kills me when people pay 300 bucks for the same pipe with a different name on it. But yeah get mil's, get the splice in kind they are easy to work with and won't go bad like the plug ins tend to do. I got my mil's on ebay they were 14 bucks to my door, and lastly no you do not need a tune.

Yeah i figured there couldnt be too much of a difference between the jegs and another one so i went with the jegs. I got it installed and it sounds great. And i just ordered some mil eliminators so hopefully i should be good to go. Thanks for the help.

But i thought you would get a check engine light with the offroad pipe and so far i havent got it yet.

it can take a week or two before you get a check engine light....but the mil's I got have kept the check engine off since i installed them about 6 weeks ago.
