No CEL and you will feel a power increase. My wife didn't believe me until she drove it.

Thanks ...I'm getting it installed tomorrow. Did you wrap yours or did you have a ceramic coating? Also, did you do any extra insulation of the turbo oil pipe which runs parallel to the downpipe? Like a heat shield or wrap the oil pipe?

Mine is ceramic coated. I didn't wrap it but I am thinking of taking it off and putting some type of wrap on it. I think the original heat shield can be modified in order to get it back on.

Go to "Exhaust DEpot". they are located in Florida... I have the 2.5 inch downpipe on now for about 1000 miles and NO CEL Lights! I have it hooked up to Invidia 300 exhaust which is real sweet.
