JDL UEL Header with catalytic converter code
Hey all.
New to the forum here but quite versed in cars. I'm looking to add a 2014-16 brz to the collection. One I'm interested in has a JDL header with a catalytic converter. We pulled 2 codes from the ecu which the owner claims are due to the header. My brief understanding was that only P0420 may happen with a header swap and no tune. Could anyone here confirm: 1) If having these 2 codes due to a header swap is normal? P2270 and P0137 2) My local tuner is familiar with ecutek. Would tuning with ecutek resolve these codes? Thx. |

It is more than likely that the header was installed without a tune. Catted headers don't guarantee a lack of a code showing up. Any sort of tuning software could fix this. Either Tactrix, OFT, or ECUTek.

I'm hoping it is just the header install and my tuner could flash a ecutek tune or I could buy a OFT. However, I'm concerned it may be due to exhaust leak or a faulty rear O2 sensor. I'm hoping to confirm from others experience to see if I need to budget parts asap so I can pass an inspection before registering.
