I ran my HJS Euro 6 catted DP for over a year without a tune. No CELs or other problems. I then ran it with the Dinan piggyback in Stage 1 for 6 months and no issues. I'm now running with the Dinan piggyback in Stage 2. Again, no issues. The Dinan piggyback isn't designed specifically to run with a DP either.

The primary reason tuners recommend DPs with Stage 2 tunes and higher is because of the elevated exhaust gas temps when running higher boost/timing, etc. That heat can kill the stock cats at a quicker pace than stock. It's not because the tuners are doing something special to the tune to account for the DP to unleash more power.
