I am installing an uppipe and TBE exhaust this weekend and am wondering if its alright to run a catless uppipe on the cobb ots stage 2 map. Also any tips on installing the uppipe are much appreciated as i hear its a *****.

 

Yea you can run stage 2 ots with what you are putting on. As far as putting on the up pipe good luck.

 

yea the ap will take care of of all your CEL's and you will get alot more power out of your setup..not to mention you wont run lean and do some damage to your engine....as for the uppipe...get some help its rough

 

Yea lots of beer. If you plan on doing a turbo upgrade I would wait for that.

 

here's a write up on installing the uppipe. I personally had a shop install it.

I had stage 2 map on mine then when I got my up-pipe installed I could feel the peer differnce. Plus you hear your turbo spool up like crazy.

 

uppipe is not hard. any monkey with basic tools could do it.
from the top of my head you will need
1. jack and jackstands
2. 10mm(remove bolts from heat shield),12mm(bolts holding the undertray),14mm(every exhaust related bolt and motor mount) sockets and wrenches
3. rachet
4.block of wood is place under the oil pan when you are jacking the motor up(which you dont HAVE to do, but it makes it easier to do sometimes)
5. torque stick
there are plenty of good write ups.
6. o2 sensor socket or 22mm/ 7/8 wrench
7. new gaskets OEM ones are great
Dont worry take your time its not hard.
