Default Cat efficiency code.

Only fix is to move the 2nd O2 sensors to after the main cats, or buy APR's downpipe software.

GIAC will not turn off the cat monitoring feature.

Default Re: Pretty sure the Version 1 of the APR cats didn't have that sensor...

Default Re: Didn't the Version 1 of the APR downpipes not include O2 sensors?

Default Until you tell me the DTC I can't help, but I'm willing to bet $1 you have the O2 sensors

Default there were sensors, but no cat between them, so the stock program would thus think the cat isn't wor

working.

did APR announce a Version 2?

Default The "new" downpipes have been around for over a year. They underwent a redesign a long time ago. 808

has the original versions that were developed over 2 years ago. That is why APR would not be talking about this "new" version. In reality, it is not so new anymore...
