New headers, air/fuel ratio?

[JRsP5]

We'll I'm getting OBX headers and already have a injen cai. I wanted to know if my Air/Fuel ratio will be okay. I tried searching but found nothing, I really just don't want to blow a rod for something stupid. Also, I am going to be running my P5 catless with a catless mam midpipe and racing beat cat-back. Does anyone have a soundclip of how loud this will be?

Mmm tasty! Why would you order multiple headers? You can only use 1. Just messin with you. Sorry, I don't have a sound clip, but I can say it sounds veddy veddy nice! And don't worry, your car will run fine.

Have you gotten any fixit tickets yet?

remove vtcs while you do the header that in conjunction with header = lotsa powar!!

You will be fine. I'am running an AWR header, Injen CAI, and MAM catless mid-pipe. I had a Magnaflow catback, but it was way too noisy, so I put the stock system from the mid-pipe to the muffler back on. Weird, when I put the stock system back on with the header, cai, and mid-pipe, it seems I have more low end torque. I likey...

This tells me you're running no cats. You're not throwing a CEL?

As you can see in my thread, I've got problems. Will be looking at lower resistor values next. You running 1 Mohm resistance and 1 uM cap? If so, what brand and part #s?

 

[o.g.sk8er]

sorry to hear you are having problems with this..

After I installed the mil elimiator, I have have no problems at all....
Not sure of the resistor values, but this is what I have installed.

We get a fixit ticket when something is basically not working right on your car or is too loud. My brother-in-law got one for running his subaru catless and he said that he just needed to prove he put atleast $70 toword fixing the problem.
