As the title says, after having a difillipo catback system installed I've noticed that when ever I plant my foot hard, the engine pings a bit in between 2-3,000 rpm, once it is above that there is no sign of detonation. Running on 98 octane helps it be a little smoother but the problem is still present. If it's something I can do myself I'd rather do that than have to pay someone.

Thanks in advance

He did say cat back...

The 2nd sensor is in the cat output pipe.

And if it wasn't there, this post would be called "MIL stuck on... Why?"
