Default True duals on 2006 FX4?

Someone told me that putting true duals on a 2006 FX4 should not be done because they have 4 catylitic converters and it messes with the sensors. I was also told it would void the warrenty. Is this true?

The rear two cats can be cut off but not the front two or you will get some thrown codes and other ****.

But the true duals themselves won't affect the cats.

do the 40 series regular duals (not true duals) still give a nice loud roar?

Yeah they do. I have the 40 series on mine and I love it. I have a true dual system though so I think it is a little louder than running a single muffler.

Did running the true duals void your warranty?

No. I checked with the dealer before I did it and they said that it would be fine.

If you touch the front 2 cats then you'll start throwing codes because you're messing with the O2 sensor but you'll be fine with the rears.
