I forgot to mention. If you're so inclined, and are getting annoyed w/ the CEL, you can unhook the battery for, say, 60 seconds, and it should be gone. It'll come back, but you wont look at it for a little while. |

i have removed the cats on my 02 and replaced them with tubi test pipes. the check engine light came after 500 miles but it has not caused me any problems. the dealer told me just to leave it and they will look at the car when it comes in for service.
i would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who wants to DRASTICALLY improve the sounds of the car. it is so awesome i can't even describe it. |

Vanny- Most OBD 2 cars, which your 360 is, will know when you've replaced the cats w/ test pipes; even if you've got a well made test pipe w/ o2 sensor fittings, the sensor will still read the elevated levels of HC's, and will trigger a CEL. Weather or not this will throw your car into to limp mode I don't know. |

this probable has been discussed -if you replace the cats. with pipes with adaptors for the oxy. sensors will you get funny readings because the inlet and outlet readings will be the same and is worth it other than more sound? |
