if it’s done via obdii only it should. Stock ecu and no tune, no cel or any error codes. They were installed at the dealership.

no smell, no cel.

for your year car I don’t think they use the hose attachment to the exhaust? Call worldmotorsports they should know as they are in California.

oem I think is 500+ cell.

one if the largest sound improvements were from the downpipes.

Most smog shops don’t even do a visual under the car. Just under the hood.

Centre pipes kit Right - Left
Cod: 721313

Alternative to 721323 or 721303
To be installed as a kit with 849411


The center pipes make no mention of needing to be installed with any other components, so I took that to mean they bolt to ge OEM backbox.

Maybe be I should call to check on Monday 😯
Did you get a check engine light due to the oxygen sensor reading a non OEM downpipe?

Hello there, yes you will get a CEL triggered. If you are not looking for a performance ECU tuning then you can tell your tuner to remove the values so no CEL comes on.
