    Goofy fuel gauge.......

    Theyre not terribly necessary. I took the cats outta my truck, (5.4) but shouldn;t be too much different. It stumbles a lil bit if i hold at one rpm for awhile but doesn't affect performance at all I actually get better mileage now. Also they make an O2 sim that just plugs into ur rear sensors...
