Hello all,
I have tune with cats included but I can’t get car to be emissions ready. I was wondering if I put stock injectors on and stock tune. If I stayed out of boost could I pass that way? Lost, cat has been down 6 months…please help:)

Are you sure all emissions are showing ready?
I read a lot of posts about tuners turning off 02 sensors. Check with your tuner to see if this is the case.

Looks like the 02 sensors are not ready.
Do you have long tube headers on the car?

Either your tuner didn't retune your car or your reader is off??
It's showing both cats and 02 sensors are NOT READY.

No. You need the tuning software to be able to look at the tune.

What kind of cats are they? I've heard of some people having issues with some high flow cats because there isn't enough of a difference in the readings between the up stream and down stream sensors. It's not enough to throw a light, but the ECU won't set the monitor. If you have access to a stock mid pipe I'd try that.

No, they are stock cats. Maybe I will notify tuner to look at tune. Make sure cats are turned on. I have no check engine light on, but it just will not put a check mark on those two things. I wonder if I didn't tighten them down enough and a small leak may be causing??
