(1) What did you and your truck do today?
Yeah it's a 99 lol no warranty there haha. I'm really not expecting much of any gains just hoping for no losses, and I live in Iowa where we have no emissions tests all that is required is a muffler which you can get away without one. And will it throw any codes at all?

Got my wheels back from powder coat and on the truck!
damn looks nice, I have been wanting to do mine - got a quote for $85.00 a tire for 17" rims.
I'm kind of torn if I want to do that or if I want to put some 20's on there next year and I will get them powdered black or just get some black rims. I may plastidip what I got and graduate to bigger nicer things next year

Yes, it will throw codes. P0420 for bank 1 and P0430 for bank 2. You used to be able to buy MIL eliminators pretty cheap, they are hard to come by now because of the government. They just plug in to the downstream O2 sensor connector and make it so the computer thinks all is well. Every Mustang web site used to sell them, not anymore. Also, they go bad frequently. You can have the rear O2's shut off if you have your truck tuned, but yes it will throw codes. Unless it runs rich I wouldn't think it'll backfire without a cat, I personally have never had that happen. I had no cats on my 88 GT, 03 Procharged GT, and 02 Saleen S281. Makes it a bit louder, but no feelable performance gains. I wouldn't do it again if I were to have another Mustang
