Test Pipes

I want to know if anyone put in test pipes and what kinds of lights it sets off on your car? What do you do about it? Just drive around with check engine light on?

Not all test pipes cause check engine light. They reuse factory O2 sensors and use non foulers to avoid CEL.

^ I think Protan did a HFC only and tune, think he gained about 22~hp? Test pipes would be the best bang for the buck if your looking for some gains out of the bolt on category.

yep^ HFC/TPs are the best power/money bolt ons.

Look into GTM, MXP, and Fast intentions I think they all have J tubes which prevent CEL.
