Cobra cat back - is a remap required?


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is my first post, I'm collecting my new Z this Saturday :-)

 

I know the stock exhaust is rather tame so I am looking at the full Cobra cat-back system, it states on the Cobra website a remap is recommended. Has anyone with this system had any problems with the EML lights after installing? Is a remap really necessary?

Welcome.

Since you're new... you should always do a search as this kind of question is asked a fair amount.

 

Essentially, no it doesn't unless you are adding a bunch of other things as well (decat, plenum spacer etc), sure, then go for it.

If you aren't replacing the cats for HFC or decats then it won't throw up any EML and you don't really NEED a remap, I would wait until you have done all the other breather mods then get the remap.

Thanks guys, I don't intend on doing any other mods so I will be fine. Actually just read on the Cobra site that their system is just from the cats, now I know the actual meaning of cat back... I don't know too much about techy car talk :-)

Welcome to the forum.

 

Even with a number of breathing mods there are differing opinions on whether a remap is worth the expense. Definitely wouldn't bother with just the exhaust.

We've supplied and fitted the Cobra to a few 370zs who haven't had a remap but they just wanted to unleash the V6, let us know if we can help with the system... :)

 

Do you keep the full Cobra cat back system with the 5" slash cut tips (TP18) in stock? Are you open Saturdays?
