Default X-Pipe

Will switching to the Pypes X-Pipe cause my check engine light to come on?

Yes, but that's not something I'd suggest doing, could cause some type of Fed up problem later.

Yes, really. I installed the full Pypes true dual with X on my V6...only the Driver rear O2 sensor did not need to be extended. I ended up replacing all four anywayswith ones thatalready had longer wires anyways. Less hassle and I figured with 100K on the stockers it was best.
