Default If I do long tubes.........?

I really want to put on a set of pace setter lts....... But if I do that with the off road y pipe will it throw a check engine code? and do they have all the bungs for the o2 sensors? last but not least should I get it tuned?

I have a 5.3 rcsb with k&n and a corsa exhaust.

they have bungs for the front o2's and you will need a tune to turn off your rear o2's

I have pacesetters and the offroad y pipe. They will definitely throw a check engine code because there are no bungs for rear O2 sensors. You can either get the rear O2 sensors tuned out and gain even more performance or you can just buy O2 simulators that you plug into the wire harness where the O2's used to be and you wont get any check engine lights. There are several people around here who can do a tune, it just depends on how much you want to spend. If you aren't getting a dyno tune I personally wouldn't spend over 200 bucks..

I looked into buying the simulators and they are no longer available for trucks. The company might not even be selling them for any vehicle.

Do any of you live around st. louis? I spoke to my local speed shop and he said that there were shops that could tune the truck but he did not know of anyone who specalized in these trucks. What can I expect to pay for a dyno tune? everyone seems pretty happy with nelson and wheatly?!
