I installed a catted MAPerformance DOwnpipe, and after like 50mi I got the ECL P0420 Code, so naturally I cleared it on My Ktuner. Now it keeps coming back, how do I get rid of it permanently? Yes everything is tight and sealed properly

gotta use ktuner to disable the code not just clear it.

When you set up a tune in the KTuner software, go to Disables/Monitors. Under Options, put a check next to P0420. Then upload the tune to your ECU.

This is what you're looking for. I think the bottom (O2 Sensor Slow Response) is for the CAI Race though.

No, downpipes will throw P0138/P0139. I get that one with my 27WON catted DP without it disabled. Never saw a P0420 though.

You wouldn't think a catted downpipe would throw a catalyst efficiency code.

This was directly what TSP customer service recommended for my installation of PRL catted DP and Race CAI

Hasn't thrown any codes with this either.

I recommend you try to address the issue rather than just ignore it. Your car is throwing an inefficiency code for a reason. Ignoring it will only lead to detrimental permanent issues in the long run. Try putting a defouler on it.
