Did a "Cat delete"? Does that mean you just took out the converters?

Yes. There is also "test circuit" that can be built with a capacitor and resistor....

I find that odd. I did a cat delete and nothing but good resulted. Better power, fuel economy, torque...Engine computer didn't mind it at all. I'd be willing to bet you have other problems. I do have a tune but the benefits from deleting/replacing the cats was easily felt beforehand. Really made her glide well too. I never thought it would impact zero throttle OD glide.... but it did. Mine only had pinholes left for flow. Like a big cone inside the cats. Poster you have replaced many parts on your powertrain. Plugs, Coils should be on your list if not done yet. Clean your MAF and IAC too. Fuel, air filters, fuel sending unit. Vacuum test where possible to check for leaks. Are what most do.

Sorry guys been busy and haven't checked this for awhile. The problem turned out being a cracked spark plug i wasn't aware of because they were changed out about 2000 miles prior. Shes running pretty good no except for the ball joints need to be replaced thats what I get for running 35's I guess
Did you delete the rear 2 or all 4? I want to delete my rears for the sound. I was wondering if there's a noticable power/torque increase from deleting the rear ones only. From what I've read there shouldn't be any error codes or drivability issues.
