So I had the MBRP installed last night, but to avoid removing the second cat they recommended I install the system without the MBRP resonator - so basically the 2.25" pipe starts near the rear axle with only the two cats in front of it and only the muffler aft of it.
It actually sounds pretty good, although there's a couple of points where there's a bit of buzz ... but during my first highway run this morning the "check gas cap" light came on.
This is half way through a tank of gas so I have to assume it's something to do with the exhaust install and not actually a problem with the gas cap. I did re and re the cap a couple of times but the light wouldn't reset.
Is this due to the reduced back pressure because there's no resonator (and therefore re-installing it would fix) or do you think something else is at work here?
Thanks for everyone's input.
