    On I finally sold my truck and have extra money to spend on the car. But I've got a couple questions, first if I orders downpipe without the o2 sensor bung I know it'll throw a Code but will it affect anything else? And yes I know there are o2 emulators out there. And second I'd rather not spend the money on the $100 radio harness to retain the OnStar and steering wheel controls. Now I've heard some places the monsoon amp wi
    Knt work without that harness and some places say it'll work with just the normal $10 harness. So I'd like to get a definitive answer. Thanks in advance! Oh and its a 2006 GT

    Likely with no cat and no rear o2 sensor on a 2006 car, you will see a check engine light and poor fuel mileage. The car will prolly run the cat test alot and dump fuel.

    Because a 2006 GT is already supercharged.

    OK so the 10 dollar o2 sensor bung is probably worth it haha
