Kerry Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I've just bought a pair of invidia test pipes and wanted to know if I was to fit them now without having the car mapped would it be safe for the engine and would it cause the engine management light to come on? The rest of my set up is stock at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJF Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Yes, they will be fine to run without a map. The only thing you'll harm is your MPG as the need to plant your right foot will become more apparent when there's a V6 backing track. Your EML may come on, although most aftermarket decats incorporate sensor spacers which should prevent this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 You'll be fine. You will definitely get a CEL unless you have O2 sensor extenders on the pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaqkaudio Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I did the same on mine but with Berk decats, it's fine. Dependent on if you have o2 extenders/delete to stop the management light coming on it will eventually come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
