I ordered a week ago and still waiting for shipping confirmation, I'll post if my kit will work with catless downpipes. There's hardly any info or reviews about such module online some says it works some says it doesn't, let's see

How does she sounds? you have resonators on there still? I did a res delete and live the way it sounds. I think I need these downpipes though as long as there is no CEL.

I got a cel on my second drive cycle total within 100 miles of driving but I deleted it with Carly obd tool , I hope once I'll receive the Mil delete kit it'll permanently go away
