Could someone with no experience install these or do they have to be professionally installed?
Thank you!
I do not own a set of motordyne pipes but it sounds like getting the CEL is a rare occurrence that a few people have experienced. If/when it ever happens you can always clear it with a standard OBD-II tool.

There is also the option to completely disable those specific cat efficacy CEL codes with an ECU reflash.
