Default Tuning

Ok, so I was reading threw a couple of forums and popped up a question in my head. Right now i got a stock 4.7 05 dakota, and eventually i want to go with a forged bottom end, and a newer 4.7 top end setup, anyways I will be going with a SCT tuner, obviously because eventually with these mods the superchip or edge tuner will not work. My question is when i purchase a sct tuner, can i delete the cats out of the system? unfortunatley with the computer we have at work wont let me do such a thing, although i did flash it to run my high beam and fogs at the same time

if you want forged internals just save your self the trouble and just do a HO swap like myself.

yeah, hemifever (sct) can turn off your o2 sensor.

the HO already has a cam and better heads than a standard 4.7, as well as higher flow injectors. those forged cranks are near impossible to find.

why not just get a wide band that has a simulated narrow band output?

that way, you can still see actual AFR's and the computer will still be happy with the low volt output.
