see Maximum Motorsport for ECUTEK tune

or

see All Star Garage for VERSO tune

(search those two terms on the forum and you will find all you need to know about the two, and 73 arguments about which one is better)

I just had the same thing today, and I had it before when I drove slowly for a while. The code should be cat efficiency below threshold. If u have the same code, cleared it with scanner and shift at high rev for a day. It's just a high flow down pipe related issue, not a faulty sensor.
