if you remove the catalytic converter without using O2 sensor simulators for the post cat sensors obviously you're going to get a CEL. And, without that, the car doesn't know what the air/fuel mixture needs to be, especially with the SRT feeding still more air into the *****, you're going to lose top end power, plain and simple. Search. Don't be stupid. These cars are not an 80's mustang or something you can just rip parts off and expect to run fine.

That 273 hp number seems pretty high if you were relatively stock, that being said the 230 is pretty low for stock much less with the SRT. I'm not an expert on any of the details of dyno's or performance on these cars so I can't offer you more help but thought I'd point that out for consideration.

Plain and simple your first dyno run (of 273whp) was done incorrectly. The 230whp number is pretty low especially for having the SRT intake; you should be seeing around 250whp at least with that setup. Perhaps your car is NOT running right and the 230whp figure is true and correct. GL and get your car checked out.
