No, the down pipes have the fitting to install the sensor and it (the sensor) adjusts itself = no CEL.

Some have disconnected the battery prior to restarting to let everything re-adjust. I did not and did not get a CEL.

So what does it mean #2 cat delete. Do we have two cats?

Yes the CRZ has a primary cat and a secondary cat. The cat delete replaces the secondary cat with a straight through pipe. Gives the stock exhaust a beautiful growl and a noticeable amount of torque.

Thanks man, I had no idea about that. Too many extras needed for our exhaust. Crazy talk!

BLF CAI comes in today Work is not going by fast enough. I'll be sure to post pics after it's installed.

Got the CAI installed a while back, it came loose, but i tightened everything back up today, which was MUCH easier on the lift at the shop lol. oh and for future buyers, the installation guide tells you to remove the stock intake (obviously lol) but there's also a lower section that connects to the intake that has 2 screws iirc that have to be removed and it has to be pulled out in order to make the intake fit. I didnt see it in the guide so i thought i would post it here. Also, i had a bit of an issue with the CAI pipe rubbing against the lower corner of the battery mount, so now i have a nasty gash in the pipe, so i took a pair or pliers and bent the metal piece back and out of the way a bit, and that got rid of the rattling. I'll have to take it back one day to be repowder coated, but until then no one really sees it anyways, and every thing works great. much more responsive, a little better fuel economy as well. just gotta remember not to let the led foot out

Thanks for the feedback, great info in there about the install. Good lesson for anyone doing any install (exh, intake, CAT pipe, etc) to recheck after a few miles to make sure everything is aligned properly. Good catch!

Thanks

Same thing goes for wheels and brakes.
