Should be fine with the sport cat. That's what I did for a while. Always a good idea to run a log to make sure the car doesn't mind. If you aren't great at reading the log you can get help on n54tunning.
Thanks!

I just tried map7 with an e85 mix. Felt really strong but I don't think my values like timing and fuel trim were the best so I'm back to map 2 till I can research further.

I couldn't find a PDF file as well. I would also try contacting your local dealer to see if they have something for you. I'm sure they have SOME documenation of it considering they would need to inform their technicians on how to do an install them if needed.

I will be completely honest with you - I have not had hands on experience with the JB4 itself so I am unaware of which map you would run for the Sport Cat, but it looks like you got your answer already!

Hey, I sent an email to Bobby/Nick but it's the weekend so I'm not expecting a response. The sportcat downpipe has been great since I've installed it last July/August and I put quite some miles since then but now I get a CEL. The code was P0420 Catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 1. I'm planning on taking it to the shop that installed this for me, could this be a bad o2 sensor? Anyhow, thought i'd bring that up to you. Thanks.

I have received your email, and we will be reaching out to you shortly.

Majority of the time it is an installation error or something else has failed. Ex. bad O2 sensor. I would suggest getting that checked out first and then go from there.

After about 15000 miles with the fabspeed sport cat I am now getting a CEL. It could have been earlier but I put in an intake about 4 months ago so I had my jb4 deleting the CELS but I removed it a few days ago. I don't think it's a coincident that the cel started a few days after I turned off the cel delete so I've probably had the code for a while now. It's code 402 cat efficiency or something.

Has anyone confirmed a bad O2 sensor to be causing this code or are we looking at the sport cat being the problem?
