I know those clowns at the original installers were thinking about starting their own ECU tune program and my gut feeling is that they tried to test some settings on my car without my consent. Only reason I knew this was when the car went into the dealership to address the CEL issues, they found out that the ECU had been flashed. Shady.

The only time I had problems w 200 cats (AWE) was after the installation of an aftermarket O2 sensor. Some time later I started throwing lights and blamed the cats. AWE was responsive as usual and sent adaptors but the problem only went away after I replaced the am sensor w an oem Bosch part.

Hey Joe, sorry to hear about your issue. We have no problem getting your Sport Cats warranted, as long as we have all the information on the issue. Shoot me a PM or give me a call and we will go over everything and get this handled right away for you. As long as you have a OBD readout for the CE codes that are pointing at the sport cats, we can get this resolved quickly for you. I look forward to hearing from you.
thanks,

MrChan is infamous around these parts
I had CEL with my Fabspeed header, 200 cell cats & exhaust package, tried many mod on extension opening and no change. Then added Softronic and fixed the issue with more power. With the cell, the engine feels lacking on the track. I have a leaky header gasket when the engine gets hot. The header seat was not flat. If u see black marks near the haeder area, means it is leaking. Also, i was using their cooper gasket, and a new one.

Hey Joe, no problem and yes I do remember that, it was nice meeting you. We have come along way since then so we are finally preparing to move the sales team over to be fully working out of the new facility. Glad you back to enjoying the car and let me know if you ever need anything else. We will be having our grand opening and cars and coffee event sometime in September to showcase the new place so make sure to check back on our website for the date. It would be great to have you and any of your car friends attend. Its going to be a great time.
Thanks,
