^ cobb does fix the P0420 from popping due to the catless exhaust. If you keep getting that cel then you have a leak somewhere else. Check your coolant lines,fuel pump and gasket,gas cap, and all vacuum hoses.

Do you have a mechanical or electrical fix on the o2 sensor? the cruise light blinks whenever the CEL light comes on.

yeah with a cel fix i got low voltage on O2 bank 2. that CEL is probably nothing.
I dont know what your setup is but with my txs stealth back with cat and the factory axle back i did not creep.

definately get a tune. it makes the car .

check out Enginuity.org and Osecuroms.org its a great way to get a tune for cheap

the other thing is, if you fix the problem and drive around normally for 2-3 days the cel will actually turn off on it's own once the ECU realizes eveyrything is working properly again. Suprised the hell out of the first time it happened, I always used to reset my ECU to clear the code but not anymore.
