the wrx has a egt sensor in the up pipe so yes, when you decat it, it will throw up a cel light, ways around it are, get mapper to turn it off, stick a resistor on the end or buy a decat up pipe with a hole there for a sensor. just to let you know a remap is very advisable after this mod and don't drive on boost until you have one.
