It sounds as though you are in major need of a tune to get things correct. From what you describe when you stomp on the throttle you get the sputter. That would be too rich. I thought I read in another header post about d/c the rear 02 connectors? You still need a tune! |

Check all spark plugs and wires. You may need a tune but it should not feel that bad. I have Rotofab, Kooks LT's, Kooks Green Cats and mine did the same thing from misfires on the spark plug. The only way it could be the cats being clogged. Check the airflow from the mufflers. Maybe someone left a rag in the cat.

I have JBA shorties and JBA HF cats on my 1LE. As mentioned above buy a pair of extenders first thing, make sure when you put it back together everything is tight / no leaks as I know first hand if an o2 sensor is not tight it will throw a code right away. OK, back on track. I installed the cats & headers with a set of extenders I bought separate and it didn't throw a code for 500-600 miles (just had a tune so now not a worry).
With this set-up no tune is needed.

This one is hard to understand ... You state at the end, no tune needed, but yet you got a CEL after 500 miles and got a tune ?

My over-all grand scheme / plans changed pretty quick so running shorty headers & HF cats keeping things smog legal and warranty in tact went out the window.
