Default Do need MIL's

With an o/r H-Pipe do have to get MIL's? Will a tuner do the same thing for me?

They connect to your rear 02 sensors to turn off the CEL if you have an o/r midpipe.

Yes the tuner will turn off your CEL because it does the same thing as the MIL eliminators. It tricks your computer into thinking the cats are working properly. You should either get the tuner to turn them off or use the MIL eliminators if you get a non catted mid pipe. I'd go with the tuner though, a little more but does a lot more. The MIL eliminators have a tendency of breaking.
