I'm curious if you didn't do anything to the O2 sensors... Even if its not close, messing around in that area might have knocked one loose... I'm with RT - is the check engine light? For all intents and purposes, you could cut the exhaust off after the back o2 sensors and the computer could care less...

without a CEL this will be particularly difficult to diagnose. O2 sensors or even a plugged cat or 2 could be the cause, but the cats you would have noticed before the swap....

Very true, I wasnt aware that the Fsport was a cat back. I need to do more research on these things...but the lack of time is killing me.

Like other's mentioned, did you install gaskets? The exhaust comes with O ring gaskets and you re-use the stock donut gasket for the midpipe. Also make sure the bolts are tight.
You many also want to pull the batt and have the computer relearn your driving habits.
