Do I need to Disconnect the battery cable for sometime so the car realises that the cats are no more there?

Good luck getting an unbiased opinion on "best gains". Evolve remote tune is convenient, good customer service & allows you to put the stock file back on. Seems to be the way to go.

Dinan warranty doesn't apply to racing parts and hardware

Thus, even if he had gotten the Dinan xpipe and their software, there's no warranty

Then you must have a tune. There is no way that without having cats at all that the car wouldn't code for cat efficiency.

With 200 Cel cats *SOMETIMES* you can sneak by. With 100 cell or lower, not happening without software changes or some sort of hardware 02 sims/ relocation, etc..

No you don't already have a tune. He means you must get one. I just put in the challenge sport yesterday with no primaries and hfc 200 cell secondaries and have no cel either but its cause I have only driven 40 miles. I'm going with the rvolve because of ease of the install good service and ability to switch to stock if needed. Mine is coming on monday.
