Question Can You Install Lambda Adapter With Catted X-Pipe?

based on the threads, polls, etc the xpipes with race cats (200 cpsi) and CEL seem to be hit or miss based on customers.

if we install the lambda adapters on the 02 sensors on top of the 200 cpsi cat maybe that will solve all CEL problems?

Maybe...if you know exactly which ones to select.

It may work.
I ordered these from vibrant to try out on my Borla catless x-pipe.
It has 3 sizes of jets to try, and find the one that works.

I think this also depends if the car is chipped.

it also has an effect.

I tried them on mine for a 1000 miles, didn't work, CEL came back. But as my friend put it, it's a hit or miss, you might be more lucky than me.
