Does anyone else find the sedan horribly plain looking?

I need a little info. Maybe this is just misinformation but do High Flow Cats cause the idiot light to come on? A kid down my street put Berk HFC on his Z35 and he told me his check engine light came on after the install. Anybody have experience with this? This is the only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger on getting HFC's.
ECU needs to relearn, carbon needs to build up inside the cats, etc.
Reset the ECU and let it cycle. As far as I can tell researching this for some time now, this is standard operating procedure. You get the CEL when the ECU cycles the first time after the HFC install, then you reset and it never comes back.
At least, that's what I'm hoping for. Fingers crossed.

A quarter past stripped
Useful knowledge. Thanks for the advice. I may do a little bit more research on the subject but I really do want the HFC's paired to the Tanabe Axle-backs. I've heard it really brings out the engines natural growl / howl. I can't imagine it.
Even the best quality videos and sound clips of these set-ups don't do justice to the real in person thing. IMO

It was actually pretty comical the first time I learned the procedure for resetting the ECU on these cars. It reminded me of the blood code for Mortal Combat on Sega Genises; Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, A,B,A Start. LOL I actually thought it was a spoof or gag at first, till I tried it.

This thread here has some excellent pics to compare the Invidia to OEM:

Mik3G37S, are you sure that setup is true-dual?

I will on my lunch break soon, but make sure you watch it on some decent sound system with a subwoofer this way it gives you the best idea of what it sounds in person... and John out of curiosity I checked for a local uprev authorized pro tuners in my area and there are two but I need some more insight on this as I am very skeptical about doing the tune which I guess may more than likely void my warranty if they can easily detect it at a dealership
Rochester... according to my friend it is and he knows his ****he is a mechanic afterall... , he had a g35 coupe boosted now fully built Evo X pushing over 500WHP all done by himself ... I didnt know it was a true dual until he mentioned it.. the reason why he said its true dual because as you see in the pictures the pipes that resemble Y shape are separate pieces that don't go into 1 pipe but instead 2 seperate pipes only place where they sort of intersect is X pipe...
look at these pics..

I'm no expert at all on getting the car tuned via UpRev software. All I know is that when you're done with intake and exhaust mods, that's your next step... so be sure you're done. (No UIM in your future.)
Research it, start a Build Thread, and post your progress there. This ***** thread is fine and all, but it's a whoring thread. It just is.

Upper Intake Manifold
Specifically, I'm thinking of the Motordyne M37 unit, which is a bolt-pattern modified UIM off the VQ35HR (if I'm remembering that correctly.) IDK of the flow design is different, or it's simply a change in the air volume. Probably the latter... in which case you would still be needing a tune to take proper advantage of the new specs.
I'm no mechanic either, Mik. Just a hobby enthusiast.

Two pipes instead of a connected Y, I get that. But they collect into an X-pipe. Unless there's something I'm missing, that's not true-dual. I wonder what the purpose of the X-pipe is? I mean, that's a very intentional design. Hmm.

You brought it up, though.
And you corrected "Mik" into "Mike" when quoting me. That's funny.
