Then how does EC program the ECU to avoid a CEL after removing the primaries?

We are $500 less than $3K right now. We us 16 gauge T304 Stainless steel made in the USA. We actually hand pick the tubing we get from the steel yard.

With trying to keep a good eye on QC we are happy to say we have not had a fatigue, stress, or weld failure in any of our header systems we have made. They are built to out last your car. Its my believe when it comes to craftsmanship, finishing, performance, materials, and over all value. There is no other long tube header mfg in this segment that is a head of us. At about $55 per horsepower gained on a bone stock car. Then factoring in the work & materials we put in to making the header. We think they are a real value.

Are those merge collectors on the MBH headers?

Just speaking from personal experience, EC was NOT able to turn off my CEL when I got a custom dyno tune when I got my Kleemann headers...not that I would have anyone else tune my car lol! Just have to find another way around it come emissions time. If cost was no object, I would go MBH...Hooley's headers are immaculate!
