    So I put an intake on my truck. Been suspecting my cat going out for some time as the smell is obvious. But it bogs down and has a loss of power. I've cleaned the 02 sensor and Mass air flow sensor my code reader says its running lean on bank one. Im not looking for dumbass remarks just some advice. And if anyone knows where to find after market front and rear bumpers that'd be awesome cause I live in Montana and deer are truck killers all year

    No trouble, just a simple mistake that will get you the unwanted responses

    I assume the lean code you're getting is a P0171? That code is usually related to a vacuum leak somewhere in the engine bay after the MAF sensor. Check all your hoses for cracks and leaks.

    A bad/failing cat will throw a P0420 code, only way to fix that is to put a new cat in...if you live somewhere with emissions that can be more expensive, if not then you can always get a cheap aftermarket one
