High flow cats....warranty question?
So i ordered the JBA high flow cats http://juicedmotorsports.com/2010cam...a_1812syc.html they will be here tomorrow and im getting them installed Thur. Im having my set up so i can simple unbolt and reinstall the stock cats if need be. Im not doing any sort of a tune, as im waiting for a couple years as well this will be done when i get headers. Im only wanting just a little more grumble out of my NPP. What part if any could the dealer say was damaged by high flow cats?

Too Lean a motor? Burned valve etc. Issues with air fuel ratio sensors?
Good read (case you haven't seen it already) http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=267574 |

I can only speak for my dealer, but when my car dropped a valve and destroyed the engine - I had on HF cats. it was still covered under warranty. your results may vary.

who knows, but it took out the piston/head/cylinder wall etc. I would guess the spring broke.

I have Solos and am very pleased with the sound and performance. No tune, no CEL's. Keep your original cats. LT's will not bolt up to these.
