05GT Guru Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I still dont understnad why guys who plan on only going stage two refuse to gut the cats. Everyone just keeps saying buy used aftermarket parts. But you people dont realize at those power and mod levels you can get pretty much the same hp with the stock gutted up/dp vs a aftermarket up/dp. If you plan to go further then aftermarket parts would be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got em in the basement and was thinking about selling them soon? We could meet up for a drop off? ________ Vapir one review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05GT Guru Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 With new cars they just plug into your computer and with a proper tune all the codes will be shut off. I passed no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM sent. Emissions just plugs into the OBD2 port to make sure you dont have any codes. antny has one for sale - good seller. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=106736 Good price on the more pricey DP's (used) is $300-$350. You can go invidia or Megan (new) for around $250 shipped. ________ SexyNadine live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsme Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Right, i like saving money but not at the cost of my cars life. A properly done open source stage 2 map can be just as safe as anything. It can also be bad just like any tune, hell guys have gotten protunes that hurt there engine. That is what I have been telling everyone about "protune". There is alot of support for OS. Just ask question and take your time.
