But an rhfc is designed in a way that would not happen anyway right ?
What am i missing ?
If i get the rhfc without the extra o2 bungs would i get a cel ?

FI exhaust guarantee no CEL. if by chance you throw one they will work with you to get it fixed.

i thought the same as you jordo, if the cel is on then the car won't be running right.

Nah, I come from the VW/Audi scene where CEL's are always on. Rear O2 does nothing but check O2 levels, it has no influence on how the car runs. As long as that is the only reason your light is on your car will run 100%.

Right, but how do you know when another CEL is triggered if something else goes wrong down the road? Check for codes daily I guess?

Definitely true, I want to get a tune ASAP but something tells me getting one instead of saving for my wedding in 7 months is a bad idea

nah, tune is better... your wife might leave you, but a tune never will (as long as you keep the car)

jk, don't listen to me lol

Eclipz · 03-04-2015, 07:48 PM

You can tune your wife after you tune the Z

njobe89 · 03-17-2015, 12:46 PM

i ended up going with top speed tp's... they were cheap, hopefully it doesn't bite me in the arse, but i'll dyno/tune hopefully this weekend so we'll see what i get

bkngo · 03-17-2015, 05:56 PM

loving my FI RTP... makes the car sounds right... I get the hissing at decel but not a big deal... no cel yet...

hopefully I will get dyno'ed and tuned in the next month or so with UpRev... then it's suspension time...

JC-Nismo · 04-10-2015, 11:45 AM

Maybe it's just the Top Speed test pipes that hiss on accel because I had new gaskets and all and Z1 did the installation so I'm pretty confident that the bolts are tight especially since it took them 3 hours to do it. I can live with the hissing at high rpms, but would eliminate it if there were a quick remedy.

hmm you're supposed to have the hiss on when you decel. not accel.

JC-Nismo · 04-10-2015, 11:09 PM

I took it back out and it's rasp at over 4k @ WOT and a slight hiss on decal.
