If you get a cat delete pipe do you need to have to fool any electronic sensors to avoid error codes and problems?

No you don't on a 5.9. There are no exhaust sensors on a 5.9.

Thanks!

Mine sounds better with muffler delete, not to loud cruising and kept cat for no problems with NY emissions. Try muffler first for cheapest route, can always do more later.

I did just that. Had the muffler removed and left the cat on. i don't have to have the emissions checked, so I Could remove the cat too.... but right now, it's just about perfect. Loud at low end and easy cruisin = very little drone...
