T88OMM:
I ran a full TBE Milltek on a completely standard ED30 for 4000 miles and I had no lights or any problems  :surprised:

i believe it is the the other way round.  The Less back pressure, due to the bigger bore, and free flow cat reduces the temp differential between the 2 lambda probes and throws a CEL light.

I am in the same boat, i want to access the increased torque that the DP will give, but at the risk of a CEL light.

I may be totally wrong though, but that was the way it was explained to me.................

I was kinda half listening when explained to me by Charlie @ Milltek as it didn't effect me............. :wink:

As above, I'd stick it on and see. I didn't have a problem running Stage 1 Bluefin.  :wink:

gazbutS3:
I've no CEL runnin stg 1 Revo and TBE, it does seem to effect some cars and not others :smiley:

hufcforpromotion:
So it looks like I will have to spend another £500 on top of exhaust to get a remap!

bacillus:
Milltek themself advise that you should only get the high flow cats if you car is remapped as it's a waste on a non-mapped car.
