MIL Eliminator needed with a Hi-Flo cat?

[Chewbacca]

I'm going to be getting a 2.5" Apex downpipe with a high-flow catalytic converter... But I am curious... Would the CEL come on even with a high-flow cat? Will I need a MIL eliminator?

It all depends on where the 02 sensor would be mounted. If it is mounted behind the hi flo cat, then you wont get a cel but if it is infront it will.

Just mount the sensor behind the cat. I have a CS exhaust with a Vibrant cat and no CEL.

i didn't think a mil eliminator was needed at all w/ a hi-flow cat in place (especially on the apex pipe).

Good to know... Thanks for all the quick responses!

Put the O2 sensor after the cat, no CEL, unless you cook your cat.
I have a cat on my Corksport exhaust, no CEL.

Did you just bring your car to a local exhaust shop to put the Cat on? How much did it run you?

I went to Essential Speed, bought the cat and had it installed with an O2 bung for about $200 Canadian, parts and labour. Also extended the O2 sensor wires, fixed a leak etc etc.

I have been running my ION exhaust with high flow cat for a long time and no CEL
