So its going to be warming up outside soon, wanted to have more money saved up by now to do exhaust intake and tune but was not able to save up that much with school and everything, so I am wondering if I can run and o/r x on my 05 gt without a tune and if there will be any side effects from not having a tune other than the obvious cel that will come on. I know on my older 97 you could do it just would have the cel but idk about these newer cars.

No problems going that route. Just the cel. I did the same thing for a few months

would a defouler work?

that is good to hear I cant wait to hear what this thing sounds like, very few s197 with any exhaust mods around here, did you go o/r h or x? and what did you think of it?

pdub42

that like an o2 sim? I didnt want to buy one of these since I do already have an xcal 2 just dont have tunes for the new car yet so I will have it tuned to fix the cel once I get the money for the cai and tunes

I got the H pipe. I like the deeper rumble they produce over the X. And it was money well spent, way way louder than with cats.

i like loud lol, i am still deciding between h and x, had an x on my old car and liked it but it was a 6 so a little diff haha

One thing to think about. Any muffler will sound great with an H pipe straight through or chambered. Straight through mufflers sound good with a X pipe but a X pipe with chambered mufflers sound aweful. Just my .02

I'll take your 02. And deposit it into my bank for later when I get my lts

i think I might be changing my mind to an H now lol I was listening to more youtube videos and I think I might like the H sound better idk I wish I could hear some in person haha.
