My 02 sensor is still connected...I just talked to a guy on the youtube site and he told me that I could get an EGR eliminator...he also told me to check my down tube from the engine to ensure that it was still connected.

here's my question. i have a 2007 fi50 with a 4.6l v8. i have stock manifolds which went into cats but i had them taken out. from there it goes into a y pipe and then into a 3 inch slp LMII catback exhaust lightning style. i get way to much metal ratle and a jake brake sound when i down shift. would makeing it a trual dual with 2 slp LMII fix that? i personally think its too much sound for one muffler and tip to handle. also i cleared that check engine light and stopped her from runnin lean by useing a granetelli tunner.

i cut my cat off and ran a 2 1/2 inch pipe to my cherry bomb turbo muffler then to my stock tail pipe i think it gives it a little hp it has better throttle response.

I cut my rear cat off and ran 3" out in front of the rear passenger tire. It looks great and sounds surprisingly good (alittle loud). Don't think it helped my torque any though. I have a 3" DynoMax Race Bullet sitting in the garage just haven't put it on yet. I have the same mufflers on my Lightning with an x-pipe and it sounds great.
