People with 3" exhausts 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Sin on  Mon Feb 26 06:18 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I've been noticing a lot of people mentioning problems with various emissions (lambda) warnings regarding 3" exhausts.

I intend on running a PES/GIAC chip with a 3" downpipe, 3" cat and 3" cat-back and an open element air filter.

Should I be expecting the constant lighting of the lambda warning light?

If this set-up does cause fault codes setting off the lambda warning light, will that affect performance (something like a "limp home" safety, like the Caddilac Northstar engines)?

Can I reset the lambda warning using the chech-engine reset method available in the older 850's?

Thanx for the helpy guys.
