Has anyone had a CEL with Akra Catted DP?

Just wondering.

On their website it says it produces one and I was just wondering if it was a covering their ass or 100% thing.

I have not heard of a CEL issue with the Akrapovic downpipe but then again if they are saying their downpipe will trigger it then it will.

Why not get the active autowerke with GESI cats instead? Its cheaper and you get a guarantee of no check engine light

I got a 60% off deal on this expensive ass DP due to shipping damage that was repairable. So I went with that, but they say it POTENTIALLY will, I feel like that's just being cautious and not a promise.

Most likely you'll get a CEL, you'll need to wait for the flash tunes when they get released down the road.

In the meantime, enjoy your Akra DPs.
