    Lol.^^

    The bullydog won't delete it. You will need a tune for that.

    I want it deleted due to a high flow cat. Do you recommend any tune or PCM? I checked 3800 performance and ZZP both don't say that it will remove the code. Probably my best bet is to call them but I wanted to see if anyone has done the same already!

    Bingo. Exactly what I did until I send my PCM back to will for a retune.
