Exclamation ppe headers poll

I'm am going through a big indecision. I want to get the headers ordered but I keep seeing people getting codes thrown.
I know a lot of y'all have them working good..... fill out the poll if you have a cel or not. I know I'm not the only one who is waiting anxiously for the headers to be code free!

I am a fan of cats cuz they give the exhaust a good sound. but I like to use stock ones. high flow cats aren't worth the money to me.

kybbal I have been following your thread and it is part of the reason why I am hesitating. I can't keep trying to fix it. I need a sure fire way to make it work.

I haven't been quoted for the install yet and when I spoke to the guy about a custom exhaust he didn't seem like he wanted to give to much help after install.

HFC is need cause your stock cat is attached to your header and cant be taken apart. As far as CEL if you get the install rite your golden.

Headers delete the primary cats.

Most PPE owners have had good results with the CEL fix.
