What sounds Stronger and louder the X or H ?

SlowSix · May 22nd, 2011, 11:06 PM

X is louder and raspier, H is more mellow and deeper.

yea see thats what i thought so im glad im not the only one. if i had to pick id get the o/r H. i also think that the DD sounds and looks like truck exhaust just

Does anyone know if NC does the sniffer? I think that they only plug it into the OBD port but im not sure. i would love to get LT's, an O/r X-Pipe, and super 40 flows

so if i cut my cats off how would i keep the O2 sensor from making the check engine light on.... and when i look under my car. i havent put it on a lift, but it looks like the sensors are in front of the cats so would that matter??? or is it something else in front of the cat?

Green_6er · June 20th, 2011, 01:54 AM

to make the light stop coming on you need to get MIL eliminators

there are 4 o2 sensors...two just after the manifold/exhaust flange, just before the rear cats are the other two...and yes it matters. it will throw a code (been there done that)

as for killing it...either MIL eliminators or a tuner

Mexabilly · June 20th, 2011, 02:08 AM

it won't do anything but show the light on...

as for what MIL eliminators do...they trick the o2's into believing the cats are on the car

no problems when i removed all 4 cats off my GT....in fact MPG went up 1-2 with the new o/r prochamber, and the sound was unreal

as for how MIL eliminators work...im assuming they either cause the circuit to loop back onto itself or cross them in some fashion...i've never used them because i was waiting on buying a handheld for the car

lol i was talking bout cuttin them off and then just runnin the straight pipes til i can save and get the o/r h with flow 40s.
hmm so u saying u have just ran your car with the check engine light on this whole time?? like how long has that been? lol

SlowSix · June 20th, 2011, 11:22 AM

The Mil's are just a resistor that makes the rear o2's put out the correct voltage so the car thinks the rear cats are there.

SixShooterStang · June 21st, 2011, 08:27 PM

I am probly going to sound dumb asking this, but is the flow and sound you get of eliminating cats worth the cost of buying piping and the time you spend welding it back up
