Just installed a CNT catted DP in my 07 LGT MT. Wrapped the DP and all. After the install i took it for a ride and did some good pulls and what not. I noticed that my legs were getting freakin hot, like hotter than normal. I felt around under the dash and around the radio and it was getting pretty warm. Is this normal? Has this happened to anyone else?

lmao no no i don't think its shingles. Idk it just feels a lot warmer then it was before. It probable didn't help that i was full of fiberglass too. Must have been a heat flash....also the car threw a P0244 code this morning on the way to work, overboosting with 16.5psi then tapering down to 13 at 6900rpm? everyone that i read that has gotten that code was running a catless downpipe and like 18 psi, and some around 20.

I got all of the fiberglass out. I had painted the downpipe black before the install so all of the strands were visible. My girlfriend sat there and took all of them out, she's a life savor

Yes a dyno tune is best, or an e-tune through infamous. But I believe there are some decent tuners in the MA area with dynos in their shops. You'll get more power and have a happier car.
