Now it is extremely effective with high flow cats. Reason being, the cats are not free flowing and they will help produce enough heat as well as restriction. With the Resonated and straight test pipes the non foulers are effective most of the time. However, there is that seldom case where they do not keep the CEL light off. In the event of that, the only way to eliminate the CEL light is the reflash the ECU with a tune, EX: Uprev, Technosquare and Cobb.

So, in short words, your F.I. HFC's should keep the CEL off, in theory, and it is the most probable scenario and with the F.I. RTP's there is a higher probability that the CEL will light up.
To be honest, I like your HFC's better than the other options just because of this. I'm not sure what the HP gains would be from the F.I. HFC's alone compared to Berk or Stillen, but this no-CEL thing is a BIG PLUS for me.. I HATE that CEL with all my heart...

I don't think anyone with HFC's on 370's have had any CEL issues at this point.

No pads or scotch Britte, just the non foulers.

Interesante... Gonna have to look into this.
Also, can you comment as why you chose to go with the / \ cannister look as opposed to the = look? I personally like the / \ look myself. Just trying to see if there's truth/fiction to the reasons as to why = is better... |

right, just non-foulers. I'll be putting on my Berk HFC's this weekend and have no worries about CEL's popping up.

== gives a little more room for ground clearance with the mufflers unless you are going with a big turbo pushing a lot of boost, I doubt there will be any noticeable difference in performance.

I just think the / \ looks better lol. The impact in performance wise I heard from the B*** thread was the / \ design allows for air to come up under the rear bumper creating lift, and the = helped fill this gap. Part 2 of that is that same air is then caught in the bumper and creates resistance.

guys I will shead some light on the CEL issue. I have had both Berk and FI HFC's on my G37. The Berk threw a CEL from day one. But others have not throwen them. I have had my FI HFC's on for 10000+km now and just got the CEL. but I am running with out the non-fouler. I called tony and he is shipping me out a set to look after me. But he is busy with all you dudes ordering for the 370Z. so slow it down and let him ship me my non-foulers. lol
