Comrades,
I have a '91 with 80K miles. I had the dealership change the oil (full Synthetic, as always) just 1K miles ago. The only mods I'm aware of are an Prospeed Stage 3 ROM Chip (I don't believe it changes the rev limiter setting), headers, and exhaust. However, I'm not the original owner...

Anyway, I bought the Prospeed High Flow Cats (much smaller and lighter)...
I recently replaced my "test" pipes with a used set of stock catalytic converters. Since then I've noticed 2 new sounds;
1. At cold start, it pops once like a backfire as soon as I turn it over. After that, it runs like a champ. This, I assumed, had something to do with the cats.
2. With car...
