Default Prochamber / MIL Eliminator Question


Hey guys, I have a question about off road pipes and MIL eliminators. I've done some research and on this forum for related topics, but I haven't found anything related to this regarding 5.0s.

My exhaust mods are listed in my sig, but soon I'm going to replace my catted X pipe with a MAC Prochamber O/R midpipe. I've also been searching online for MIL eliminators, but every site I find that has them for sale lists them as 4.6L applications, not 5.0. Will I need MIL eliminators on my 94 5.0 if I get the Prochamber midpipe, and if so, which pair/set should I get? Thanks.

You don't need mils because you don't have 02 sensors that check the efficincy of the cats.

Thanks for the input guys. Anyone else that actually has a 94 or 95 5.0 that can verify? I just want to be sure before I attempt the install of the Prochamber

Could you elaborate, vfast? How does that affect the O/R pipe install?

OBDII is seen on 96-97 and newer cars where the computer measures the efficiency of the catalytic converters. OBDI, EECIV, etc just measure the pre cat oxygen in the exhaust for fuel metering.

Ohhhh ok!

So what vfast was saying is that the MIL eliminators would be needed for OBDII, which is apparently not on the 94-95 5.0s?
