MIL eliminators

sideways · 04-24-2008

I see many threads with everyone discussing how to pass emissions with no cats and everyones answers are to get a tune. why not MIL eliminators? they're cheaper. by alot. and they worked great on my last 2 mustangs. am i missing something? do they not work with our cars? im getting an o/r h pipe soon and i am curious myself. thanks in advance

Honestly, it's because MOST guys are getting tuners which come with the capeability. MIL eliminators are great for those not getting tuners. I plan on getting a tuner and don't want to waste my money for the MIL wires. I will deal with the light for a couple weeks.

ahhh i see. the only thing holding me back from a tuner is if it actually will let you still pass emissions. i seem to hear different stories from everyone

There's nothing wrong with just the MILs it just depends on what your other mod plans are. A lot of people start with a CAI and tune and go from there. The tuner will allow, when programmed, for exhaust upgrades and the like. If you're really only planning on the o/r pipe then you're fine. If you think you'll be adding lots of mods it would be more cost effective to get a tuner so you can compensate for all your go fast goodies.

well i already have the axle back. and the CAI. i'd like to get the tuner and i'd like to do more mods. but realistically its not gonna happen soon and im not gonna get eveything i want. cuz im tryin to save for a house at the moment. oh and theres the gf - so there goes all my money down the drain lol.

I know they don't work on the 07s but yours I don't know. I have a tune that turns on my rear 02s for emissions.

They work on 05s & 06s but not on 07 and up.
