Well I have all my gadgets working fine as well, but if you look at my vehicle it hasn't got too much Toyota left in it at all, and after this rebuild I am on now, there will be even less Toyota than there was before, and my fuel consumption has worked out that I can get just on 410klm/255mile per tank from mine now days, and I am still using the original tank. I think that is reasonable considering the motor I use now days, but that is on the highway as well. I think I have hijacked your thread, sorry, getting back on subject, have you done your exhaust yet? and has it made any/much difference yet.

lol its illegal as all hell though. I think I might bolt the cat back up, and when I go 4 wheeling when we stop and get prepared, i'll slap the straight pipe underneath and mob around in that. hah yeah I like the look and sound of it too. I think you should put a tail pipe on yours and make the cat and the pipe innerchangeable... you might like the sound at that point...

as soon as I pas smog, im going with a test pipe so i dont have to buy anymore Cats. in the future.
Mak you should replace your O2 sensor, im sure that your issue is not your Cat. The other thing i suggest you do is make sure your A/F ratio is correct. It is common for the headers to change the A/F ratio due to the cooler exhaust temps and not heat the O2 sensor properly. Hence the engine will run rich, I know from experience.

my exhaust does smell very rich, but then again, I have straight pipes on it now and no cat... so that make sense? you'll have to show me, Dark. we might be going to pick n pull over this next weekend so i'll text you and hitcha up. my truck sounds mean as hell though... I really need to get an intake on. I'll get some videos of the new sound of my straight pipe. I'll get some day time videos, some drive bys and what not.

Took the time to do some exhaust videos for everybody to here how it sounds with a straight pipe. Enjoy! 5 videos for your viewing pleasure. By the way, I know on one of the videos I mentioned I was going down I - 80, but in reality, I was going down 65... but merged onto 80... lol

im thinking my 4runner will sound similar, the manifolds aren't bad..the crossover is though..but since im ditching the stock crossover and going custom..then it should be better
i still can't wait to get my runner runnin and get my cherrybomb vortex on there

meh, the junction isn't too bad. i've never really had a problem with it, and I used to speed down it in my integra all the time. I just hate when a Big Rig is on it... pisses me off to no end.

I definitely have a 5 speed... heh. DT is Carb legal. as they come stamped. but uhh... are they the only one? Downey went out of business, so you could probably get a set off someone selling a set. LC engineering might have a street header? or maybe try NWOR? its been awhile since i've researched headers, ever since I got mine done.
